[Health care and secondary access to care inequalities].

Abstract

The role of health care inequalities in social inequalities in health should be reconsidered since the quality of health care varies according to the social status. Some of the health care inequalities are constructed by not taking account of health inequalities in the development of programs or recommendations of medical practice and thus ending up with management procedures that do not reduce inequalities to a minimum but even contribute to increasing them. Other health care inequalities are due to omission, linked to the operating inertia of a health care system that does not recognize these inequalities and has no plan to catch them up. To reverse this situation it seems necessary to act at the three levels of the health care system: to change the clinical paradigm at the micro level, tackle the organizations issues at the meso level, and pursue the reform of the entire health care system at the macro level.
