Womens Health

We are excited to work with healthcare systems in support of decreasing maternal mortality risk globally through education and community based engagement. The US- CDC identified disparities in pregnancy-related deaths among certain racial and ethnic groups and women in these groups are four times more likely to die from pregnancy-related causes than other women. 80 percent of these deaths are preventable in the US.

Population Health Program Development

In addition to operational challenges, the US landscape is one of dynamic variability due to access, geography, and a number of socio-economic factors, age, race, income, access, and health literacy. The race to develop initiatives to address quality in healthcare needs to be implemented in a way that has a significant impact across the board. As provided in The Economics of Healthcare Quality and Medical Errors, approximately 200,000 Americans die from preventable medical errors at a cost of $19.5 billion US dollars. Consensus Healthcare Consultants works with healthcare and community-based organizations to support ideation, process mapping, and program implementation to close the gap in healthcare disparities across the globe.
