As I said, racism from health care workers isn't something that throwing more money in the system is going to help.
I am surprised if it is really that significant... admitedly I do have very little experience with health care in general especially the treatment of various groups of people in terms of health care. However, I would be surprised to find that people involved in health care are more racist than the average population, which I don't see as being bad enough to really cause serious problems. I guess it could be a bit worse in rural areas but that comes down to either the cultural divide or rural health services being crap in general and needing improvement.
