As a purpose-driven organization, Philips cares deeply about health equity — which we believe is the challenge of our times. We also believe that access to quality care is a universal right, not a privilege. Through our technology, collaborations and unwavering commitment to our mission, we aim to make that right a reality for the communities who need it most.
In a country where healthcare disparities are shockingly pronounced, the need for change is imperative. We know that if we come together as a healthcare community, we can make a real difference.
While no single intervention will solve these issues, there are ways we can help. Every health system, large or small, no matter where they are located or what kind of patient population they serve, can play a part in advancing health equity.
The good news is that health leaders are taking meaningful steps towards a more equitable future and sharing their perspectives. For more on health leaders’ priorities, see the 2024 FHI US Report.*

“There are millions of people in the U.S. who lack even the most basic access to healthcare. With all that reality, though, it’s also an incredible opportunity to leverage the power of technology to reach into local communities and improve lives.”
