“Equity work is fundamentally quality work. A question that I recommend organizations ask themselves is how are you ensuring that your organization understands the population being served — and are you reflecting the population being served? Value-based care is not just about the metrics. It’s not just about the structure. It’s also about intention — what are you trying to achieve and how are you trying to achieve it? “

— Tosan Boyo, M.P.H.,

senior vice president of hospital operations at California-based John Muir Health.


Let’s codesign a mHealth product together.
