You are invited to join us on Thursday, November 16th, from 10 A.M - 11 A.M. for a virtual seminar by Tatsuya Norii, MD.

Topic: Data: A Powerful Tool to Advance Health Equity

Introduction:

You can’t improve what you don’t measure. Consistently collecting fundamental data in electronic health records, including REaL (Race, Ethnicity, and Language) and SDOH (Social Determinants of Health), and making this data available is a crucial first step in advancing health equity, whether you're undertaking quality improvement or research projects. Dr. Tatsuya Norii, UNMH’s Associate Chief Data Officer and an Associate Professor of Emergency Medicine, will discuss health system-wide initiatives related to REaL and SDOH data.

Learning objectives:

  • Review the process of collecting REaL (Race, Ethnicity, and Language) data at UNM Health
  • Describe the new SDOH (Social Determinants of Health) forms in our electronic health records
  • Analyze REaL and SDOH data within UNM Health
  • Apply REaL and SDOH data to promote health equity
