AHA and its Institute for Diversity and Health Equity are requesting that members complete the biennial diversity and health equity benchmark survey no later than Friday, April 29, to ensure this critical tool for evaluating the state of the field’s DEI efforts can deliver robust data. Hospital CEOs and DEI leaders recently received communications with instructions on how to complete the survey and will be reminded again in the upcoming days. The survey should be completed by organizational leaders whose focus is on health equity and/or diversity and inclusion initiatives. If you have questions related to the survey or need assistance, please contact AHA’s survey support team at surveysupport@aha.org
