Why do disparities in medical care persist?
Manage episode 434842378 series 1728074
Earlier this year, a study published in The Lancet Child & Adolescent Health journal found widespread racial and ethnic disparities in medical care, treatment, and health outcomes across all pediatric specialties. That there are healthcare inequities in America that disproportionately affect marginalized communities isn’t news. But why do these disparities persist? Dr. Ayla Stanford, author of “Take Care of Them Like My Own: Faith, Fortitude, and a Surgeon’s Fight for Health Justice,” joins The Excerpt to discuss the current state of access to care in the U.S.
