Racial Disparities Persist in Pediatric Asthma Care in Military Health System
Original: Racial and Ethnic Disparities Persist in Pediatric Asthma Despite Military Health Insurance Coverage
New reporting highlights that racial and ethnic disparities in pediatric asthma outcomes persist even among children covered by the Military Health System, where insurance access is equal across beneficiaries. The finding suggests that uniform coverage alone does not eliminate gaps in asthma care and outcomes for children, pointing to other social or systemic factors driving the differences.
Why now: The finding challenges the assumption that equal insurance coverage ensures equal health outcomes, prompting debate about what actually drives health disparities.
