Vulnerable populations are "groups of persons whose range of options is severely limited, who are frequently subjected to coercion in their decision making, or who may be compromised in their ability to give informed consent"[1].
The ECHO (Extension for Community Health Outcomes) program may improve the care of U.S. patients with Medicaid[2].
Startifying data analyses by vulnerable populations may help identify opportunities to end disparities[3]
