Abstract

The COVID‐19 pandemic has exacerbated the inequities in care delivered to patients with disabilities, which has consequently raised the awareness of the legal and ethical requirements of healthcare organizations to provide equitable health care to patients with disabilities. The goals of the enhancement are to: Identify COVID‐19-related disability healthcare disparities research priorities. Expand our established national learning collaborative of healthcare organizations who are striving towards providing disability equitable care and are equipped to participate in patient-centered outcomes research to address disability healthcare disparities. Develop and implement a national dissemination plan for the LEADERs learning collaborative and the associated online platform.
