The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) is offering health equity technical assistance to help healthcare providers address health disparities in minority populations. This year’s theme is “Better Health Through Better Understanding.”
During National Minority Health Month, CMS is suggesting providers talk with patients about the importance of preventive care, recommend appropriate Medicare-covered preventive services, and encourage patients to make the most of their health coverage.
The program offers, personalized coaching, resources, data collection and analysis, and help developing a language access plan.
