Description

Common diagnostic health tests have long been interpreted differently for Black patients — a practice called "race correction," which has systematically denied access to timely and sometimes life-saving care. Matt Galloway talks to LLana James, co-chair of the Canada-US Coalition to End Race Correction in Healthcare; and Dr. Nav Persaud, the Canada Research Chair in Health Justice at St. Michael's Hospital in Unity Health Toronto.
