From disparities in healthcare access and provider availability to differences in education, income, and environmental exposure, systemic inequality determines who gets to live a long, healthy life and who faces chronic disease, mental health struggles, and early mortality.
A system that prioritizes prevention over treatment would not only improve the quality of life for millions of people but also reduce the strain on hospitals and emergency rooms.
What many don’t realize is that mental health is deeply intertwined with physical health, and untreated mental health conditions can worsen chronic illnesses, increase healthcare costs, and reduce quality of life.
Millions of Americans—especially in rural areas, low-income communities, and underserved populations—struggle to access psychiatrists, therapists, and behavioral health specialists.
Healthcare access is a question of policy-driven inequality. Who receives care and what services are covered are all determined by legislative choices that affect marginalized communities.
Primary care physicians are the foundation of the healthcare system, providing preventive care, chronic disease management, and early diagnosis of serious conditions.
A new era of virtual healthcare is emerging—one that could help bridge the gap between rural patients and the care they need.
