FAMMED 200SI: United States of Healthcare: A Geographic Survey of American Healthcare Disparities

This dinner seminar will describe the various ways in which healthcare is experienced and practiced across the country. Each class will focus on one region of the nation and examine the socioeconomic, geographic, historical and cultural factors that contribute to one present-day disparity localized to the region. By examining several topics in depth, this course aims to illustrate how community and state-level discrepancies affect individual experiences and the role healthcare providers can play in making healthcare more equitable and accessible to all. This year topics covered will include: Refugee/Immigrant health, Native Health, Mental Health, Women's Health + Reproductive Rights, Homeless Health, Medicare/Health Insurance Gap.
