We build on their argument by highlighting issues that have contributed to wage disparities within healthcare systems and discuss how addressing them can create more equitable systems for both those receiving and those providing care. We further note how other healthcare systems that have wage parity have demonstrated that it is not a \"nice to have\" but an essential element of establishing a sustainable health human resources strategy.
