University of California San Francisco Give to UCSF

Digital health solutions, including telehealth, text-message and app-based health interventions have the potential to barriers to accessing care and improve health outcomes. On March 9th, from 12–1 p.m., Cal-IHEA will convene an expert panel to discuss their research focused on expanding digital health solutions for low-income Californians during the COVID-19 pandemic and beyond. Panelists will also discuss the policy implications of their research on improving digital health equity, workforce development, and tailoring and disseminating digital health interventions for Black and Latinx Californians who have suffered disproportionately from the COVID-19 pandemic.

Panelists will include UCSF/UC Berkeley Professor Adrian Aguilera, Dr. Mary Reed from Kaiser Permanente Division of Research, and UC Davis Professor Dr. Katherine Kim. The panel will be moderated by the Executive Director of HealthTech for Medicaid, Adimika Arthur, with opening remarks from Assemblymember Cecilia Aguiar-Curry.
