Algorithmic Bias in Healthcare Initiative
Recently, our researchers published an article in Science that showed significant racial bias in a widely deployed health-care algorithm that selects patients for a managed care plan. Were that bias to be eliminated, the number of African American patients selected would nearly double. Working with the developer of the algorithm, we found solutions to dramatically reduce the bias and improve the care of many patients.
