在美国，少数种族/族裔、农村和低收入人口继续经历次优的医疗保健服务和质量，尽管几十年来人们认识到健康差距，并制定了消除这些差距的政策。许多旨在实现卫生公平的卫生保健干预措施由于知识和翻译方面的差距而达不到目标。我们讨论了这些差距，并强调了有助于解决这些问题的创新干预措施，重点是心血管疾病和癌症。我们还提供建议，以推进健康公平领域，并通过改善获得护理和护理质量，为实施和评估针对健康差距的政策提供信息。
In the United States, racial/ethnic minority, rural, and low-income populations continue to experience suboptimal access to and quality of health care despite decades of recognition of health disparities and policy mandates to eliminate them. Many health care interventions that were designed to achieve health equity fall short because of gaps in knowledge and translation. We discuss these gaps and highlight innovative interventions that help address them, focusing on cardiovascular disease and cancer. We also provide recommendations for advancing the field of health equity and informing the implementation and evaluation of policies that target health disparities through improved access to care and quality of care.
