Featured Program "DOC TALK"
​
Doc Talk provides a research roadmap that spans investigations of the presence of implicit bias in health care settings, identification of mechanisms through which implicit bias operates, and interventions that may prevent or ameliorate its effects. The goal of the roadmap is to expand and revitalize efforts to understand implicit bias and, ultimately, eliminate health disparities. In addition, Doc Talk aims to connect community residents with the interpersonal connection with the medical community.

Health care Matters
Outstanding Quality
The state of health disparities in the United States has remained relatively stable over a
number of years. Although overall outcomes for all patients have improved, a difference
persists in how different racial, ethnic, and gender groups have fared in our health care
system. Many programs that have sought to combat this problem have been predicated on
the belief that only a small number of providers in the medical community are aware of their
own biases. Accordingly, it was believed that bias awareness is the direct conduit for this
particular change in the health system. However, the results of such programs have been
unsatisfactory. The reason for such ineffectiveness is that many programs have not taken
into account the presence of implicit bias within the patient-provider relationship. This
complex form of bias operates in specific ways, and must be dealt with appropriately
