Abstract

The Quintuple Aim for Health Care Improvement by the Institute for Healthcare Improvement (IHI), underscores the importance of balancing between an improved patient experience (through patient-centered, timely, and safe care), population health outcome, lower costs, and clinician well-being and health eq- uity for optimizing health system performance. Equitable care is about providing care that does not vary in quality because of personal characteristics such as gen- der, ethnicity, geographic location, and socioeconomic status. An emphasis on healthcare equity guarantees that a healthcare system must reduce inequities in healthcare processes and outcomes, particularly for those from low-income fam- ilies and the underserved. For our paper, we are interested in discovering the state of the literature on the Quintuple Aim while mining for evidence of technology innovations in reaching the aim of health equity. Conclude with nudges in trans- forming our care system into a self-learning health system.
