Equity and Disparities in Healthcare

Disadvantaged populations experience healthcare disparities in their delivery, quality and accessibility. Inequities exist in the presence of disease, health outcomes, and access to care between populations with a different race, ethnicity, sexual orientation or social economic status.

Join this panel of health professionals for a discussion about these inequities and challenges as well as solutions to achieving health equity.
