The Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality submitted the first annual National Healthcare Disparities Report to Congress in December, 2003. This first report will provide a snapshot of the state of racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic disparities in access and quality of care in America. It examines disparities in the general population and within the Agency's priority populations. While focused on extant data, the first report will form the foundation for future versions, which examines causes of disparities and shape solutions to the problem. As patient advocates and agents of change, primary care physicians play a critical role in efforts to eliminate disparities in health care. Continuing participation by primary care physicians in the development and refinement of the National Healthcare Disparities Report is essential.
医疗保健研究与质量局于2003年12月向国会提交了首份年度《国家医疗保健差异报告》。这份首份报告将呈现美国在医疗服务可及性和质量方面种族、族裔及社会经济差异的现状。它审视了普通人群以及该机构重点关注人群中的差异情况。虽然首份报告聚焦现有数据，但将为未来版本奠定基础，未来版本将研究差异产生的原因并形成问题的解决方案。作为患者权益倡导者和变革推动者，初级保健医生在消除医疗保健差异的努力中发挥着关键作用。初级保健医生持续参与《国家医疗保健差异报告》的制定和完善至关重要。
