I recently spoke to the Diversity and Inclusion Advisory Group of the Central LHIN on the Health Equity Impact Assessment pilot project undertaken by The Wellesley Institute, the Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care and Toronto Central LHIN.  Central has done some tremendous work integrating equity into their new strategic plan (Integrated Health Service Plan-2) and ongoing service planning.  I highlighted lessons learned from the pilot project, argued that HEIA could contribute significantly to equity-focussed service planning and was essentially ‘ready-to-go’, and set out a number of success conditions a LHIN could consider if it wanted to implement HEIA.
