Abstract
Health disparities are closely linked with economic, social, or environmental disadvantage and are the differences observed between groups as related to disease morbidity and mortality, injury, or violence. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration Office of Minority Health and Health Equity and the American Pharmacists Association are both committed to the advancement of health equity and to increasing education and awareness of diabetes-related health disparity issues. Pharmacists are strategically located within the health care system and have the knowledge and skills to support the reduction of health disparities in patients with diabetes. This article highlights some of the many approaches and resources pharmacists can use in addressing health disparities and describes culturally competent, health literate, and numerate techniques for providing education and communicating with patients who have diabetes.
