By partnering with The Office of the Chief Medical Officer (CMO) and the Office of Inclusion, Diversity and Equity, the Health Equity Advancement team at Penn sets system-wide health equity priorities for both patients and Penn employees to create a learning health system dedicated to achieving equitable patient outcomes and better value, that promotes data-driven solutions to achieve health equity.
The team is led by Jaya Aysola, MD, MPH (Executive Director, Assistant Dean of Inclusion, Diversity and Equity for the Perelman School of Medicine), Rosemary Thomas, MPH, CHES (Director of Operations), and members of the Health Equity Alliance — an interdisciplinary team of staff, faculty, house staff, administrators, and health care providers representing Penn Medicine and the Penn Schools of Medicine, Nursing, and Social Policy and Practice. The Alliance works in partnership with Center for Health Equity Advancement leadership to actualize the center's mission across Penn Medicine.
