Advanced molecular detection (AMD) refers to the integration of next-generation sequencing, epidemiologic, and bioinformatics data to drive public health actions. As new AMD technologies emerge, it is critical to ensure those methods are used in communities that are most affected by disease-induced illness and death. We describe strategies and opportunities for using AMD approaches to improve health in those communities, which include improving access to pathogen sequencing, increasing data linkages, and using pathogen sequencing for those diseases where sequencing technologies can provide the best health outcome. Such strategies can help address and prevent differences in health outcomes in various populations, such as rural and tribal communities, persons with underlying health issues, and other populations that experience higher risks for infectious disease.
