摘要 | Health plans and employers rarely work together to address racial and ethnic health care disparities in the workforce. However, these collaborations can strengthen programs to reduce disparities. This policy brief draws on interviews with large employers, health plan representatives, government officials, and national experts to assess health plan/employer partnerships addressing disparities. The brief also looks at barriers that prevent partnerships from forming and discusses strategies to encourage increased involvement of employers. Educating employers and employees on the causes and consequences of disparities, promoting the business case for disparities reduction, and creating more national leadership around these issues may elevate disparities reduction as a priority. |
