Webinar: P4HE Collaborative: The Economic Burden of Racial, Ethnic, and Educational Health Inequities in the U.S. – Sep 7
Posted by Tulane University on August 29, 2023
Health inequities impact more than just an individual’s health, they can have a lasting effect on various aspects of a society or community, including wide-reaching economic impacts. Health inequities exist for racial and ethnic minorities, and persons with lower educational attainment due to differential exposure to economic, social, structural, and environmental health risks and limited access to health care.
According to a new Tulane University study published in JAMA, racial and ethnic health inequities cost the United States economy $451 billion in 2018, a sharp increase from the previous estimate of $320 billion in 2014.
Join to discuss, in detail, the study’s findings, impacts, and potential solutions with the authors of the report.
