ANS: C
Improvements have been made in some areas of health disparities among various populations. However, health disparities vary among each racial/ethnic group. African American women have much higher death rates from breast cancer, not necessarily a higher incidence. The awareness of health disparities remains low among the general public. These health disparities are typically not the result of negligent health care practices.
