Yesterday, MPHA joined allies and community leaders to provide testimony to the Joint Committee on Health Care Financing in support of An Act to Advance Health Equity. This critical bill will advance health equity by prioritizing equity in state government, standardizing data collection and reporting, improving access to quality healthcare, and investing in community driven efforts to address root causes of health inequities through Health Equity Zones.
