So You Think You Know Minority Health? was designed to test your knowledge of the health disparities facing people of color in America today.
Unfortunately, racial and ethnic minorities in the United States continue to experience persistent and pervasive health disparities—from differences in access, quality, and coverage, to gaps in disease rates and health outcomes.
The causes of health disparities are broad and complex, ranging from societal issues like poverty and racism, to health system factors, such as access to health care facilities.
