Description: |
Although disparity in health care in America is well documented, data is severely limited on some issues, such as race, ethnicity, socio- economic position, acculturation and language. |
Synopsis: |
Disparities in health and health care across racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic backgrounds in the United States are well documented. The reasons for these disparities are, however, not well understood. Current data available on race, ethnicity, SEP, and accumulation and language use are severely limited. The report examines data collection and reporting systems relating to the collection of data on race, ethnicity, and socioeconomic position and offers recommendations. |
