Access to health care is a critical and pressing issue that continues to impact the well-being of individuals and communities. NASOMH understands that poor social, environmental, and economic conditions affect an individual's or community's ability to thrive.
Improving access to healthcare services for individuals and communities that are not thriving has been a key focus of study and discussion for many in the healthcare and public health fields. It is one of NASOMH's strategic priority areas for 2025, as access remains a critical challenge and barrier to bridging the health equity gap for many minority and rural communities.
This issue of healthcare access is multifaceted and includes challenges such as limited healthcare facilities and related resources, a diverse and culturally aware workforce, limited or no health insurance, poor access to transportation, limited English or comprehension skills, and lack of community input and buy-in. These are some examples of why this issue exists.
