>MCAT scores don't translate to better care for black people automatically
Fine. Will have two hospital systems - one with board-certified doctors who've passed the MCAT, and the hodgepodge "at least they look like me" who, assumedly, didn't pass the MCAT otherwise they'd be part of the first group. You can have any doctor from the second group.
It shouldn't have to be this way, but I bet that is coming. In fact I think it already exists, really, in the "non-Western medicine" fields. Go see a fuckin ooga booga witch doctor and stay out of our hospitals if you want your "cultural medicine."

No sooner would that be implemented than they'd be crying about disadvantaged populations' only having access to Jim Crow-tier healthcare.
