What recommendations have been made to reduce healthcare disparities in patients with stroke or TIA?
In patients with stroke or TIA, evaluating and addressing social determinants of health (eg, literacy level, language proficiency, medication affordability, food insecurity, housing, and transportation barriers) when managing stroke risk factors is recommended to reduce healthcare disparities. In patients with stroke or TIA, monitoring the achievement of nationally accepted, evidence-based performance measures is recommended to allow inequities to be identified and addressed.
