The Health Gap

The Health Gap refers to the disparities in health outcomes and access to healthcare among different groups of people. These gaps can be influenced by factors like socioeconomic status, race, education, and geographic location. For example, individuals in lower-income areas may face more health challenges due to limited access to medical services, healthy food, and clean environments. Addressing the health gap involves understanding these inequalities and working to ensure that everyone has the resources and opportunities needed for good health, ultimately leading to a more equitable healthcare system for all.
