Abstract

The report will give a summary overview of race and ethnic groups in the UTMB patient base in order to better understand the context for racial and ethnic disparities in the UTMB patient population. Different racial and ethnic groups use different UTMB services for different reasons, and encounter UTMB in different settings. This summary sets the context to understand these differences.
