EXAMINE THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN HEALTH EQUITY, HEALTH DISPARITY, AND HEALTH INEQUALITY.

One of the most basic principles of public health is that all people  have a right to health. Unfortunately, a right to health does not  guarantee good health or equivalent health status amongst people.  Although the term “disparities” is often interpreted to mean racial or  ethnic disparities, many dimensions of disparities exist in the United  States, particularly in health. If a health outcome is seen in a greater  or lesser extent between populations, there is disparity. Race,  ethnicity, sex, sexual identity, age, disability, socioeconomic status,  and geographic location all contribute to an individual’s ability to  achieve good health.
The purpose of this assignment is to consider the historic background  of health disparities. You will also relate this history to the current  state of healthcare, changes that have occurred over time and changes  that are still needed in public health.
