S78: Bridging Women’s Health Gap in the Real World: Informatics-driven strategies, innovations, and best practices to improve health equity
Presentation Type: Panel
Bridging Women’s Health Gap in the Real World: Informatics-driven strategies, innovations, and best practices to improve health equity
Presentation Time: 01:45 PM - 03:15 PM
Abstract Keywords: Diversity, Equity, Inclusion, Accessibility, and Health Equity, Fairness and elimination of bias, Delivering Health Information and Knowledge to the Public, Informatics Implementation, Health Equity
Primary Track: Policy
Programmatic Theme: Public Health Informatics
A growing emphasis on health equity has spurred the accumulation of evidence on sex and gender disparities in health outcomes, spanning across a broad spectrum of conditions. Women disproportionately experience debilitating health conditions compared to men. The focus on health informatics is crucial for closing this gap. Health informaticists play a vital role by systematically identifying and quantifying health disparities, detecting and mitigating bias in healthcare data, and developing inclusive value-based care models. However, gender disparities persist within informatics itself, potentially leading to biased digital health tools. Collaboration between organizations like the Women in AMIA Initiative and international counterparts is fostering research and advocacy efforts. Despite progress, challenges remain, including under-research/funding for women's health conditions and the need to revise existing treatments for better accessibility and effectiveness. The overarching goal of this panel is to bring together the thought leaders in the field who have experience in both research, practice and community-led efforts to summarize the latest evidence on gaps in women's health, pinpoint challenges in creating the informatics-led strategies, and best practices to achieve the principle of safety, efficacy, equity, and trust (SEET) for evidence-based, gender-inclusive health systems.
