N C Med J. 2022 May-Jun;83(3):157-162. doi: 10.18043/ncm.83.3.157.

Abstract

Clinical care makes a modest contribution to well-being, but adequate access to high-quality care is a necessary, if insufficient, condition for health. This issue of the North Carolina Medical Journal focuses on the Healthy North Carolina 2030 clinical indicators, the impact of health disparities, and the COVID-19 pandemic.
