AAMC Consumer Survey of Health Care Access: A Virtual Research Symposium - April 29

The first AAMC Health Equity Call for Research in 2019 granted unrestricted access to multi-year, never-before available data from the AAMC Consumer Survey of Health Care Access to four research teams to answer cutting-edge questions about health and health care disparities. The Consumer Survey provides demographic and contextual health information for a nationally representative sample of over 2000 respondents and is fielded twice each year; to date there have been 19 waves, starting in 2010 and continuing through 2019. Applications for the 2020 Health Equity Call for Research will open this summer.
