Our Board member, Dr. Vincent Guilamo-Ramos, served as part of the committee for the new report by The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine "Ending Unequal Treatment: Strategies to Achieve Equitable Health Care and Optimal Health for All." This report follows the landmark 2003 "Unequal Treatment: Confronting Racial and Ethnic Disparities in Health Care." report, which confirmed racial and ethnic health disparities in the US healthcare system. The new findings highlight persistent inequities driven by systemic racism and provide actionable recommendations for achieving equitable healthcare for all. Congratulations to Dr. Guilamo-Ramos and the committee for their crucial work in advancing health equity! https://bit.ly/4eOB2OQ #UnidosUS #HealthEquity
