Initiatives to Address Diversity in Oncology
A lack of meaningful representation of certain racial and ethnic minorities persists in many fields of medicine, including that of oncology, despite diversity’s association with (as stated by the Institute of Medicine) “improved access to care for racial and ethnic minority patients, greater patient choice and satisfaction, better patient-provider communication, and better educational experiences for all students while in training.” Explore the multiple initiatives that have been created to remedy inequities that impact health outcomes for minority groups—such as disparities in social determinants of health and access to a high-quality and ethnically diverse oncology workforce.

Disparities in Social Determinants of Health: What Can We Do?
Common issues that have emerged for HCPs include identifying disparities in SDOH, becoming educated about resources and tools that can improve patients’ access to care (e.g., is telemedicine an effective tool to enhance access?), coordinating with liaisons that can assist with patient navigation of health care and medical issues, and advocating for patients within the health care system. Importantly, facilitating health care team communication that provides an encompassing, holistic health care experience can improve outcomes and empower patients to participate in the health care process.
