National Healthcare Quality and Disparities Reports
For the 21st year in a row, the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) has reported on healthcare quality and disparities. The National Healthcare Quality and Disparities Report presents trends for measures related to access to care, affordable care, care coordination, effective treatment, healthy living, patient safety, and person-centered care. The report presents, in chart form, the latest available findings on quality of and access to healthcare, as well as disparities related to race and ethnicity, income, and other social determinants of health.

- 2020: In 2021, the report year was changed to reflect the publication year, rather than the year the report was developed. The report is published annually, as required by law, but due to the time needed for review, clearance, and production, is released a year after development begins (for example, the 2020 report was published in 2021). Because we now use the publication year, there was no report labeled 2020; the sequence has a gap, going from 2019 to 2021.
