Health Datapalooza

In this final post in a series, ePatient and Security Researcher Andrea Downing highlights where we need to build professional skills and lower barriers for patient experts to be part of a team in health care.

Health Datapalooza speakers Alisahah Cole and Patrice Walker emphasize the need for policymakers, payers, and internet service providers to work together to ensure that rural communities have the opportunity to achieve health equity through high-speed internet access.

Finalists created tools for comparative insights across counties, combined data for fuller pictures of community health and used data visualization to reveal disparate health outcomes.
