The Health Equity in Organized Medicine Survey (HEIOM) provides insight into actions organized medicine is taking to advance health equity. We surveyed the AMA Federation of Medicine, comprised primarily of specialty societies and state/territorial medical associations, in January 2023. The survey collected Action Insights and identified barriers and resources needed to take action. [AMA]

This report presents our initial findings. We organize the results by the steps for collective and coordinated actions of the Rise to Health Coalition (see page 6):

• Get grounded in history and your local context
• Identify opportunities for improvement
• Make equity a strategic priority
• Take initiative
• Align, invest, and advocate for thriving communities
