Discipline: | Public Health | Subject Definition: | Health Services Accessibility-United States; Ethnic Groups | NLM Class: | WA 300 | LC Class: | RA418.3 | Abstract: | The health care system in the United States has been called the best in the world. Yet wide disparities persist between social groups, and many Americans suffer from poorer health than people in other developed countries. In this revised edition of Health Disparities in the United States, Donald A. Barr provides extensive new data about the ways low socioeconomic status, race, and ethnicity interact to create and perpetuate these health disparities. Examining the significance of this gulf for the medical community and society at large, Barr offers potential policy- and physician-based solutions for reducing health inequity in the long term. |
