Insurance Against Health Disparities « Science Life Blog « University of Chicago Medical Center: "Beal, formerly a faculty researcher at Massachusetts General Hospital and the co-author of a best-selling parenting book, made a case for health equity to the seminar series, which this year is themed “Health Disparities: Local, National, Global.” Beal presented now-familiar statistics about higher rates of infant mortality, diabetes, and more in minority communities, but added a new voice to the mix - the words of Martin Luther King, spoken in Chicago in 1966: “Of all the forms of inequality, injustice in health care is the most shocking and inhumane.”"
