Equify Health addresses critical gaps in healthcare by connecting medical expertise with patient experience. By embedding direct patient insights into healthcare leadership, research, design, and delivery, we tackle deep-rooted blind spots and inequities that undermine care quality and effectiveness for all, while confronting persistent disparities in access, experience, and outcomes across diverse populations.

Our pioneering approach, backed by $1.7 million in Genentech grants and piloted at Emory University School of Medicine, represents the first patient-led initiative in academic medicine, transforming healthcare through innovation informed by lived experience.Equify Health addresses critical gaps in healthcare by connecting medical expertise with patient experience.
