"Building Trust in Our Health Care Systems." How were the present systems built? Why they no longer work. - A Follow Up to Many Wounds to Heal: Health Care (In)Equity - How Does It Affect Me?
This is the first of three sessions in a series that continues the exploration of issues identified at the September 13, 2020 Big Conversation on health care inequities. Webinar by noted expert Steven K Ragsdale, followed by Q&A.
