Abstract:
The United States Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) pledged $90 million to help reduce health disparities with data-driven solutions. The funds are being distributed to 1400 community health centers, serving over 30 million Americans. Given these developments, our piece examines the reasons behind the delayed adoption of big data for healthcare equity, recent efforts embracing big data tools, and methods to maximize potential without overburdening physicians. We additionally propose a public database for anonymized patient data, introducing diverse metrics and equitable data collection strategies, providing valuable insights for policymakers and health systems to better serve communities.
