- Title
Racial Inequalities in Health Care: Affirmative Action Programs in Medical Education and Residency Training Programs.
- Authors
Arnold, Jason F.
- Abstract
This article argues that because racial inequalities are embedded in American society, as well as in medicine, more evidence-based investigation of the effects and implications of affirmative action is needed. Residency training programs should also seek ways to recruit medical students from underrepresented groups and to create effective mentorship programs.
