HEALTHY PEOPLE- ALL AND NOT SOME

These disparities exist in a range of areas including cardiovascular disease, cancer and infant mortality. Host Michel Martin speaks with Dr Howard Koh, Department of Health and Human Services Assistant Secretary for Health, about a new action plan to reduce disparities in minority health care.
