Is racially-biased algorithm delaying health care for one million Black people?

Very interesting article. The majority of it discusses the tension that arises when using race-based adjustments in care settings, and it felt like a “darned if you do, darned if you don’t” situation.

However the last two paragraphs offer a potential way forward: use more complete data inputs to accurately reflect potential differences instead of just ham fisted race adjustment multiplier. Data alone will never take the place of in-person diagnosis, but at least it offers an improvement over the current system. We will always need to be constantly trying to improve here.

The full title (which doesn't fit the 80 char limit) is "Is a racially-biased algorithm delaying health care for one million Black people?"
