Matthew presents a Biased Care Model with clunky charts of physician and patient communication mechanisms depicting how physicians stored clinical and social knowledge of a patients group leads to racially/ethnically disparate health outcomes. Quotes from various health care providers and excerpts from interviews with patients reinforce her message and lighten the sociolegal passages at times, but too often her presentation becomes discouragingly challenging for casual readers. Immanuel Kant is probably the most important philosopher of the past 2,000 years, yet he lived a remarkably boring life. Weaving together from insights from research in history, sociology, psychology, law, and more, Matthew crushes the argument that racial disparities in health and health care are due to factors like biology and bad behavior. The final chapter provides some ways in which to address the injustice in the current health care system. JUST MEDICINE: A CURE FOR RACIAL INEQUALITY IN AMERICAN HEALTHCARE, by Dayna Bowen Matthew. How both these can exist simultaneously is DBM's question and a very good one. Because we have missed this fact, the money we spend on training providers to become culturally competent, expanding wellness education programs and community health centers, and even expanding access to health insurance will have only a modest effect on reducing health disparities. Health disparities have remained stubbornly entrenched in the American health care systemand in Just Medicine Dayna Bowen Matthew finds that they principally arise from unconscious racial and ethnic biases held by physicians, institutional providers, and their patients.Implicit bias is the single most important determinant of health and health care disparities. Definitely academic in a good way.
