IPS is committed to focusing on nurse-driven solutions to health inequities through:
- Identifying, designing, and evaluating new approaches to healthcare delivery

- Creating more opportunities for nurses as policy leaders and change agents
- Redesigning health and health care by investing in the whole person
- Elevating expertise, knowledge, and insights of nurses in the media
How Nurses Can Drive Whole-Person Health and Eliminate Health Inequities within Medicaid
In the United States, the highly skilled and highly trusted nursing workforce constitutes the nation’s largest group of health care professionals. Leveraging the skills and scale of the nursing workforce can meaningfully advance whole-person health and health equity within Medicaid.
Join Vincent Guilamo-Ramos, PhD, MPH, LCSW, ANP-BC, PMHNP-BC, FAAN, Kody Kinsley, MPP, Linda Elam, PhD, MPH, and Megan Ingraham, MPH, MBA, for this exciting webinar exploring how to harness the nursing profession’s full potential by refining care models, addressing policy barriers, and fostering aligned payments.
This virtual event was recorded live on Thursday Dec. 12, 2024.

Key topics will include:
- How a nurse-led model of care can address both clinical and social care to eliminate health and health care inequities in Medicaid
- Opportunities for optimizing the nursing workforce in strengthening the safety net
- Policy and financing recommendations that could support greater scale up of nurse-led care.
This discussion will build on a recent paper published in Nursing Outlook coauthored by several participating presenters which considered how the adoption of a nurse-led model of care can improve access to and quality of care for Medicaid members.
