CQC Webinar – Improving the Collection and Use of Race, Ethnicity and Language Data

This CQC webinar featured a panel of experts about the importance of improving the collection and use of race, ethnicity and language (REaL) data and how that data can help us understand the populations we serve and better address health disparities.

Panelists:

  • Rebecca Alcantar, MPA, Population Care Manager, Health Equity and Quality Transformation Division, Covered California
  • Teresa Ku-Borden, M.D., Associate Program Director, Adventist Health White Memorial Family Medicine Residency Program

Revisit the conversation to:

  • Review the importance of stratifying REaL data to understand the variation in health outcomes and experiences across populations.
  • Hear lessons learned from experts who have worked in the system to enhance quality and increase collection of REaL data.
  • Discuss how to support health equity initiatives.
  • Review recommendations to improve REaL data collection and usage from a new issue brief published by CQC in partnership with the California Health Care Foundation.
