While most existing fairness metrics aren’t appropriate to assess algorithms that inform population health decisions, healthcare organizations still have a responsibility to ensure their algorithms help fairly distribute limited resources. Learn about a new fairness metric developed to address the unique challenges of assessing fairness in a healthcare setting: Group Benefit Equality (GBE). With GBE, healthcare organizations now have a fairness metric to ensure that their predictive models reduce health disparities rather than exacerbate them.
