TechEquity at the Frontlines: Tools and Strategies for Inclusive Care

 
As technology reshapes clinical practice, ensuring equitable access and impact is essential. This session explores tech equity—the fair distribution, usability, and benefit of digital tools across patient populations and care teams. Through a multidisciplinary lens, physician and nursing informatics leaders examine how inequities in technology design, access, and adoption influence patient outcomes and clinician workflows. Discussion addresses disparities affecting rural and underserved communities, digital literacy gaps, algorithmic bias, and organizational structures that hinder or support equitable tech-enabled care. Participants gain actionable insights for driving equitable digital transformation.
