Racial and ethnic disparities in the quality of health care.
The annual National Healthcare Quality and Disparities Reports document widespread and persistent racial and ethnic disparities. Recent data suggest slow progress in many areas but have documented a few notable successes in eliminating these disparities. To eliminate these disparities, continued progress will require a collective national will to ensure health care equity through expanded health insurance coverage, support for primary care, and public accountability.
