Can a simple doctor training fix unfair treatment for arthritis patients?

NCT ID NCT05116163

Summary

This study tested a brief training program for rheumatologists (arthritis doctors) to see if it could help them provide more equal, high-quality care to Black and lower-income patients. The training focused on getting doctors to see each patient as an individual, rather than relying on unconscious stereotypes. Researchers measured the quality of care, patient satisfaction, and communication for about 200 patients to see if the training made a difference.
