TechTalk on Health Data Poverty & Risk of Creating a Digital Health Divide

933 Louise Avenue,Charlotte NC 28204

26 January, 2022

Description

Join our first post-Covid in-person TechTalk on health data poverty and its risk of creating a digital health divide With innovative technologies, our world has become increasingly interconnected and interdependent. In healthcare specifically the importance of collecting data from across societies and making it publicly available as well as the need to change the negative perception of gathering and sharing data are widely recognized. Evidence suggests that health data sharing may strengthen care coordination, improve quality and safety, and reduce costs. On the contrary, “data poverty” could result in a growing digital divide between communities, thereby exacerbating existing health inequalities. Come join us on January 26, 2022 to learn more about the development of norms for equitable data sharing and how the acceptance of data sharing in traditionally underserved communities can be fostered. Our speakers will talk about how “data poverty” could worsen health inequalities during the pandemic and beyond and how to ensure that no one is left behind in the digital era. Meet the panelists!
