Maine's Initiative to Address COVID-19 Health Disparities Among Populations at High Risk and Underserved, Including Racial and Ethnic Minority Populations and Rural Communities. - This project will address COVID-19 disparities and advance health equity in racial and ethnic minority groups and rural populations within the State. Activities to address this include but are not limited to identified strategies, interventions, and services that consider systemic barriers that have put certain groups at higher risk for COVID-19 infection, hospitalization, and death. Strategies will focus on populations that are at high-risk and underserved, including racial and ethnic minority groups and people living in rural communities. As defined by CDC, health equity requires striving for the highest possible standard of health for all people, giving special attention to the needs of those at greatest risk for poor health based on social conditions. " People of color and people living in rural communities have disproportionate rates of chronic diseases that increase severity of COVID-19 and face unique barriers to accessing testing, treatment, and vaccination. " A coordinated and holistic approach is necessary to building and sustaining trust, ensuring equitable access to services, and advancing health equity related to COVID-19 disparities. " Disparities are inextricably linked to complex, widespread, and longstanding health and social inequities that have increased COVID-19 risk and severity for many communities. Maine will is focused on three (3) key strategies to advance health equity in this project and reduce COVID-19 related disparities: Data and Reporting; Infrastructure Support; and Partner Mobilization. It will implement these strategies across 14 specific initiatives managed by the Office of Population Health Equity and collaborating agencies and offices across Maine DHHS.
