Health disparities refer to differences between groups of people. These differences can affect how frequently a disease affects a group, how many people get sick, or how often the disease cause death. Racial and ethnic disparities in health and health care recently have received considerable attention. Racial and ethnic minorities tend to receive poorer quality care compared with non-minorities. The Institute of Medicine (IOM) defines disparities as “racial or ethnic differences in the quality of health care that are not due to access-related factors or clinical needs, preferences, and appropriateness of intervention [1]. While the World Health Organization (WHO), have adopted a different view of what constitutes a disparity, major stakeholders agree that such disparities are unjust and need to be addressed [2]. In order to decrease this differential, it is critical to understand the particular barriers to health and health care that underserved minorities face. The barriers have been identified as: inadequate access to and availability of health care services, lack of knowledge of disease prevention and screening recommendations, low literacy, mistrust of the health care system, fear, fatalism regarding cure, genetic and environmental risk factors.
