To determine whether name and accent cues that the caller is Black shape physician offices’ responses to telephone-based requests for well-child visits. Linguistic profiling over the telephone is an aspect of structural racism that should be further studied and perhaps integrated into efforts to promote equitable access to care.

The Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act is an important first step in reforming our broken health care system. For children, it means improving the insured rate to an unprecedented high, and extending access and improving coverage for children who currently have health insurance coverage but experience barriers to getting the care they need. Congress and the President have acknowledged that certain parts of the bill need to be fixed, and significant work remains to be done to ensure that all children have access to the care they need and deserve.
