An updated toolkit from Health Research and Educational Trust (HRET)
is designed to help hospitals, clinics, health plans and others
navigate the most frequently encountered questions about collecting
patient data—such as race, ethnicity, and primary language.
The HRET Disparities Toolkit is a Web-based tool designed so users can
quickly reference information targeted for an individual's role or
specific needs within the organization. The toolkit offers guidance on
a variety of topics, including:
This effort was informed in part by data collection work performed under Expecting Success: Excellence in Cardiac Care , a Robert Wood Johnson Foundation national program. This program is one of the many efforts supported by the Foundation to reduce racial and ethnic disparities in care, as part of their overall mission to improve the health care for all Americans.
Registration is required to access to the entire contents of the toolkit. There is no fee associated with registration. Once registered, the toolkit can be used by multiple users from the organization.
