    This story does not reflect the hospital's policy at all, but rather an opinion piece written by two physicians at the hospital:

    "A Boston Review article titled “An Antiracist Agenda for Medicine” lays out a plan from Brigham and Women’s Hospital that implements a “reparations framework” for distributing medical resources in order to “comprehensively confront structural racism.""

    "Brigham and Women’s Hospital told the Washington Examiner in a statement that the article is an "opinion piece written by two physicians, not a formal position of the hospital." Boston hospital set to offer 'preferential care based on race' | Washington Examiner
    In quoting my post, you affirm and agree that you have not been goaded, provoked, emotionally manipulated or otherwise coerced into responding.

    "not a formal position of the hospital"??? Just an INFORMAL one huh? Why would two doctors say this if it weren't true? It certainly doesn't put them in the good graces of the hospital admin... They have nothing to gain from it.

    If it hasn't already been discussed among hospital administrators, I don't think doctors would be talking about it......they had to have heard it somewhere.

    How is something like that considered, equity?

    The "story" has already been debunked. It's an opinion piece by two doctors and already has been acknowledged that it is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.

    'It must be stated from the outset that not only is such a racially-based program medically unethical, it is illegal. According to Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, “No person in the United States shall, on the ground of race, color, or national origin, be excluded from participation in, be denied the benefits of, or be subjected to discrimination under any program or activity,” including “education, health care, housing, social services.” The bill was passed during an upsurge of the working class in the US in the 1960s, which had as one of its principles the ending of official discrimination along racial lines, including in health care."

    ​So don't worry about this being implemented. It must be a slow news day here.
    God Bless America, God Bless our Military and God Bless the Police who defended the country against the insurgents on January 6, 2021

    Think 3rd party for 2024 folks. Clean up America.

    Once I tell you that we agree to disagree there will be no more discussion between us in the thread so please don't waste your time continuing to argue your points because I will not respond.

    It's not going to happen. It is merely a proposal from two doctors.

    NOT a "proposal", it was "exposing".

    Okay, I'm not going to argue over the two words. Either way it's not going to happen since it would be a violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act of 1964.
