MiSalud is honored to be included in a new report from Churchill Fellow Joe Kallarackal exploring how digital health technologies can be designed and implemented to reduce health inequalities for marginalized communities, rather than widening them. He keys in on the wake-up call that digital health is not about building better technology—it's about building technology that works for the people who need it most.
With engaging real-world case studies, Mr. Kallarackal lays out 10 key findings and 5 actionable recommendations. He details MiSalud’s approach as a case study for the finding that digital health must balance what it is capable of doing with what its users are capable of and interested in doing.
As the author writes, MiSalud "developed our offer following detailed ethnographic user research" because we believe when you design healthcare around people's actual lives rather than assumptions, everyone benefits.
MiSalud is grateful for researchers like Mr. Kallarackal who are shining a light on what equitable healthcare really looks like.
