Sanford Health

Patients within the LGBTQ+ and Two Spirit community often find doctors who are allies through word of mouth. One way Sanford Health is making that easier is through Healthcare Equality Index accreditation.

Sanford Health is committed to investing in underserved communities by creating equitable and inclusive access to care.

In acknowledging the health disparities present in the LGBTQ+ community across the country, Sanford Health is proactively pursuing progress through investment in Healthcare Equality Index (HEI) accreditation. HEI is a project created by the Human Rights Campaign to serve as a national LGBTQ+ benchmarking tool that evaluates health care facilities’ policies and practices related to the equity and inclusion of their LGBTQ+ patients, visitors and employees. Sanford Health Fargo was awarded a grant from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention to support this work in health equity.
