Race-Conscious Policy Analysis and the Healthcare Reform Debate

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

There is an inherent tension between cost containment and expansion of coverage for the uninsured. African Americans disproportionately benefit from expanded health care options but they also bear a disproportionate burden in attempts to control costs. This recognition justifies a race-conscious analysis of health policy changes that appear race-neutral on their face.
