From Health Affairs
Dear John,
ICYMI, Zachary Dyer of the University of Massachusetts appeared on A
Health Podyssey to discuss his recent paper measuring the enduring
imprint of structural racism on American neighborhoods and a new
measure, the Structural Racism Effect Index, that Dyer and coauthors
developed to identify these impacts.

Racial Perceptions Shape Burden Tolerance For Programs
In the October issue of Health Affairs, Simon Haeder and Donald Moynihan
explore beliefs about the acceptability of administrative burdens
imposed by states
when implementing Medicaid and the Supplemental Nutrition Program
(SNAP).
They find that while "racial identity, and even accepted measures of
explicit racial prejudice generally were not associated with burden
tolerance...White people's racial resentment against Black people was
correlated with consistent, substantial support for more burdensome
policies."
Leighton Ku and Carolyn Barnes write Perspectives in response to Haeder
and Moynihan's findings.
Ku notes that policies like Medicaid and SNAP advance equity, but
administrative policies can further entrench racial and ethnic
disparities
.
Barnes argues that racial and ethnic minority populations may be
disproportionately harmed by administrative burdens
in the form of work requirements.
To learn more about the article, watch a video abstract
below featuring author Simon Haeder.
