title: Reexamining racial and ethnic disparities in healthcare: is unequal treatment disappearing?
abstract: Reexamining Racial and Ethnic Disparities in Healthcare: Is Unequal Treatment Disappearing? Three years ago, the Institute of Medicine released a report, Unequal Treatment: Confronting Racial and Ethnic Disparities in Health Care, which said that even when insurance, income, and age were comparable, sharp disparities in healthcare could be found between what members of minority groups receive and the care that the white, non-Hispanic majority gets. Several new studies examine if much has been changing.
