[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Note that the article deals with perceived mistreatment bias based on race, [b]not objectively demonstrated bias based on race[/b]. Whatever a woman's race she should get proper treatment, and diverting the discussion from treatment to perceived racial inequities not backed up by objective evidence does no one a service. [/quote] What would that even be? Asking health care providers, "Are you racist?", and if they say yes, that's "objectively-demonstrated bias based on race"?[/quote] the point is that this was a survey of perceptions of medical care, not a study of actual medical outcomes based on race. there are still issues sussing out what impacts are based on race and what are based on other factors; but obviously more objective than a survey. which isn't to say that a survey isn't a useful thing, just that it's no objective in terms of understanding actual outcomes.
