The American Medical Association's Center for Health Equity is enacting an External Equity & Innovation Advisory Group to support problem-solving, decision-making, stakeholder engagement, collaboration, and communication related to the AMA’s equity and innovation strategy. While the group will primarily support the Center in the evolution of its strategy and efforts, it will also interact directly with other internal innovation leaders across the AMA ecosystem. The External Equity and Innovation Advisory Group is comprised of a small group of members who are subject matter experts on the role of racial equity and social justice within innovation, including the development, scale, and funding of new health care companies and solutions, investment and payment models, emerging technologies such as AI and digital health, the advancement of diversity, equity, and inclusion in the innovation ecosystem, social and structural determinants of health inequities, and models for centering marginalized patients in solution design.
