NHC: Access and Inclusivity in American Medicine

Access and Inclusivity in American Medicine

How do we address the inequities in access to healthcare and improve outcomes for historically underserved and oppressed groups? Panelists will consider vital issues of access, equity, and inclusivity in the American medical system, and discuss how humanistic modes of critical reflection and analysis can help guide urgently needed interventions.
