Public and private entities nationwide are tackling the
complex challenge of reducing health disparities among racial and ethnic
minorities, but many national physician associations and societies have
little or no programs to address them.
A study of 167 such organizations found that 32% have no programs
that target health disparities, and 21% have just one activity. The
study did not list the specific groups included in the research, but
said that most organizations evaluated had 1,000 or more members.
