The Biden administration will offer bonuses to doctors who "create and implement an anti-racism plan" under new rules from the Department of Health and Human Services, a move meant to update Medicare payments to "reflect changes in medical practice."
Effective Jan. 1, Medicare doctors can boost their reimbursement rates by conducting "a clinic-wide review" of their practice's "commitment to anti-racism." The plan should cover "value statements" and "clinical practice guidelines," according to HHS, and define race as "a political and social construct, not a physiological one"—a dichotomy many doctors say will discourage genetic testing and worsen racial health disparities.

DEI is 'of God' in latin. I have read elsewhere that the programs were referred to as "Diversity, Inclusion, and Equity" or DIE... which I think is more appropriate.
I've been watching football and noted the number of HBCU games. Historically Black Colleges (and Universities). I mentioned it to my 'better half' and she commented that it was a response to blacks being excluded. It was. But think about how many Jewish hospitals there are (Mt. Sinai, e.g.) and how many Catholic colleges, high schools, elementary schools and hospitals there are. Yeah. Seems like everyone had it rough... but only a few are getting..... 'equity.'

What a bunch of pseudo-intellectual psychobabble.
When I was a kid my parents taught me the Golden Rule:
“Do unto others as you would have them do unto you”
… and that’s all we needed to know.

Getting rid of all CRT policies would be outstanding anti-racism.

Socialized medicine. How long until caucasian people are denied services over non-caucasians? Oh, that's right, it has already happened. Only a racist government can undo the achievements of the past 70 years.

Politicians regulating medicine....what could possibly go wrong...
I find the statement implying that disparate care provided by physicians is responsible for disparate health of minorities is disgusting, and contrary to my experience.
For the record. women (of All races) have longer average life expectancy than men (of ALL races).
Using woke logic, it appears modern medicine must therefore be called out for being anti-male.

Doctors used to abide by, "Do no harm..."
Biden wants them to hate, instead.

Any responsible physician treats blacks differently.
Blacks are are more likely to suffer from hypertension, morbid obesity, diabetes, copd from smoking.
Black girls are more likely to engage in sexual intercourse prior to menarche. With that comes unrecognized pregnancies, std's, careless pregnancy behavior, resulting in premature birth..And those preemies in many cases face lifetime medical problems.

Before I take the amount of time it takes to read something so blindingly stupid if the headline is to be believed, I would like someone to tell me what the raging F medicine has to do with ''Racism,'' either anti- or pro-! Like my Dad would say about businesses or concerns that didn't display fairness, ''They don't deserve our custom.''

Joey's plan is if he can't get doctors to do what he wants, simply bribe them with money. Sadly, it'll work.

Trauma passed down from generations? So, I am still traumatized because my ancestors had to leave their home in Maryland in 1758 and trek to Kentucky because they could no longer practice their faith? Give me freakin break. And let my wonderful doctor alone. All these horrible acts are going to do is discourage good men and women from entering the medical profession and leaving us with nothing but Fauci clones.

The medical profession has already lost all respect, so they might as well grovel through the mud chasing another dollar.

I don’t think that my doctor will buy into this. When I had my annual checkup in May, he never mentioned covid or vaccinations at all.
#15, I think discouraging people from entering the medical field is all part of the plan to destroy this country. The left wants depopulation and the “vaccines” are doing their part, but it would speed things up a lot if medical care simply became unavailable to everyone but the elites.

My doctor never mentioned a covid booster when I had my check-up. I asked him if he thought I should and he said given my age (71) and that I work with the public, he thought it would be a good idea. But he didn't say I HAD to. That's one reason I like him - he doesn't push things on me.

American Doctors should be ashamed of themselves, the AMA and the NIH on how the let their patients die without Hydroxychloroquine and Ivermectin and with Remdesivir and intubations. The Marxist deep state can make doctors do anything if the price is right.

Old senile bidet likely doesn't even know nor understand what is being done in his name. He is only the face of this corrupt administration that he didn't even assemble. He always says how proud he is of the Biden name but if the county survives this admin and revives back to the country we were the name Biden will only be known through history as shameful

Well THAT will be a handy list of unprincipled, 'doctors ' to avoid. Just look for the principled ones who vow to do no harm purposely.

Read the article. The “bonus” has to do with the doctors’ employing fewer procedures and tests - cutting back on services the Zhou administration believes are unnecessary. The article describes this in some detail.
