Heads Up! A Project of the American Academy of Physician Assistants and the Physician Assistant Foundation Define “Racial Health Disparities” Even with the same access to care, racial and ethnic minorities receive poorer care than white patients (IOM’s “Unequal Treatment,” 2003)

Heads Up! A Project of the American Academy of Physician Assistants and the Physician Assistant Foundation IOM’s 2003 Unequal Treatment Landmark review of data, indicating consistent disparities in care: “Racial and ethnic minorities tend to receive a lower quality of health care than non-minorities, even when access-related factors, such as patient's insurance status and income, are controlled." “Racial and ethnic minorities tend to receive a lower quality of health care than non-minorities, even when access-related factors, such as patient's insurance status and income, are controlled."

Heads Up! A Project of the American Academy of Physician Assistants and the Physician Assistant Foundation “Implicit Bias” and “Unconscious Stereotyping” Research indicates: Implicit biases are pervasive.Implicit biases are pervasive.

Heads Up! A Project of the American Academy of Physician Assistants and the Physician Assistant Foundation Implicit Bias and Clinical Outcomes Physicians reported no explicit preference for white versus black patientsPhysicians reported no explicit preference for white versus black patients Implicit Association Test (IAT) revealed implicit preference favoring white AmericansImplicit Association Test (IAT) revealed implicit preference favoring white Americans

Heads Up! A Project of the American Academy of Physician Assistants and the Physician Assistant Foundation Implicit Bias and Clinical Outcomes IAT revealed implicit stereotypes of black Americans as less cooperative with medical procedures and less cooperative generallyIAT revealed implicit stereotypes of black Americans as less cooperative with medical procedures and less cooperative generally As physicians’ pro-white implicit bias increased, so did their likelihood of treating white patients and not treating black patients with thrombolysisAs physicians’ pro-white implicit bias increased, so did their likelihood of treating white patients and not treating black patients with thrombolysis

Heads Up! A Project of the American Academy of Physician Assistants and the Physician Assistant Foundation Dual Process Stereotyping Two distinct methods of stereotyping: 1.Automatic stereotyping 2.Goal modified stereotyping Burgess and van Ryn: Understanding the provider contribution to race/ethnicity disparities in pain treatment; Pain Med. 2006
