Deactivating Implicit Bias, Eliminating Treatment Disparities in Oncology: The Road Ahead
BlueJeans
Ann Arbor, MI

The Alliance to Advance Patient-Centered Cancer Care is bringing together two experts to discuss treatment disparities in clinical oncology and beyond, highlighting key interventions and relevant research. Dr. Jeff Stone will provide a comprehensive overview of implicit bias, illustrating how verbal and non-verbal behavior can affect patient-provider communication, with a special focus on Hispanic and Latinx patients in Southern Arizona. From the Mount Sinai Health System, Dr. Cardinale Smith will discuss her experience working to eliminate barriers to care in palliative care settings, where Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) experience significant issues accessing hospice care and adequate pain management.
