Does the work incorporate equity?

Our endeavor to increase both the quantity and quality of our medication reconciliation process aims to include health equity factors in the near future. Research performed by our Medicine staff has displayed a fewer number of medication reconciliations performed on black patients and patients with Medicaid (current state). We are currently adjusting our Medication Reconciliation Scoring Tool to account for these two patient populations.

Does this work address any of the UChicago Medicine quality priorities as listed on the Clinical Excellence Scorecard?
