This commentary discusses the implications of the report and recommendations of the Working Group on Diversity's Subgroup on Individuals with Disabilities, recently endorsed by the full Advisory Committee to the Director (ACD) of the National Institutes of Health (NIH). We suggest that one of these recommendations, the formal designation of people with disabilities as a US health disparity population, can be enacted immediately, which would spur new federal investment in disability-based disparities research.
本评论讨论了多样性工作组残疾人小组报告和建议的影响，该报告和建议最近得到了美国国立卫生研究院（NIH）主任顾问委员会（ACD）的认可。我们建议，可以立即实施其中一项建议，即正式指定残疾人为美国健康差异人群，这将促使联邦政府对基于残疾的差异研究进行新的投资。
