Health Equity Commitment
Health Equity is defined by the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) as the attainment of the highest level of health for all people. Everyone has a fair and just opportunity to access their optimal health regardless of race, ethnicity, disability, sexual orientation, gender identity, socioeconomic status, geography, preferred language, or other factors that affect access to care and health outcomes.
At CareSource, we are dedicated to the communities we serve, and to making a positive impact in the lives of our members through the elimination of health disparities, supporting health equity initiatives and partnering with community stakeholders to carry out this work.
It is through a collective effort to understand the diverse values, belief systems, cultures, linguistic needs, and socioeconomic barriers of our members that we are able to make lasting improvements in health equity.
We are champions of health equity and improved outcomes for those who entrust us with their care.
