Out now @bjgp.org: Does ethnicity affect palliative care coding in primary care? We examined 200,876 patient records * 32% had a palliative care record before death * Ethnicity didn't affect whether palliative care was recorded, but the Other group was identified later #PalliativeCare

NEW PAPER People from minority ethnic groups face inequities in palliative and end-of-life care, yet research methods often fail to capture them. We worked with patients, carers, clinicians, and researchers to develop 13 principles for better research on ethnicity in palliative care. #palliativecare
