Healthcare Disparities at the Crossroads with Healthcare Reform (Hardcover, 2011 Ed.)

Building on the success of Dr. Williams's widely influential first book Eleminating Healthcare Disparities in America: Beyond the IOM Report, this new volume takes a fresh and timely look at the current state of healthcare reform and the progress and problems we face in the pursuit of healthcare equity. This book focuses on how the elimination of disparities can be accomplished through targeted efforts made within the context of reform. Comprising the combined efforts of the nation's best health policy analysts, researchers, key opinion and thought leaders, and clinicians, this book addresses both current and impending legislation and future movements in healthcare. With the knowledge that the problem of disparities extends beyond the present political arena into the larger scope of all aspects of delivery, the authors provide critical analysis of the causation of the disparities, a striking call to action with implementable strategies for advancing equity, and provide insightful examples of what has worked.
