Traditionally disadvantaged groups are more likely to want life-sustaining treatments and are the beneficiaries of greater spending and intervention at the end of life, yet these outcomes are considered disadvantageous by clinicians and scholars. This dissertation investigates how diverse individuals experience end-of-life health care, and how and when differences become disparities. First, I use Health and Retirement Survey data to demonstrate racial and socioeconomic differences in end-of-life preferences and decisions and demonstrate preferences for more aggressive treatment are correlated with a lower likelihood of congruent decisions. Second, I employ ethnographic and interview methods to examine communication and decision-making about life-sustaining treatments and find that population-level inequities arise through 1) clinical patterns of valuation and standardization in medicine, and 2) differences in institutional resources among hospitals that treat demographically different populations. Collectively, my findings reinforce the need for a nuanced understanding of the mechanisms that produce inequality when designing health care interventions focused on alleviating disparities. Further, this research reveals how cultural tastes influence the clinical valuation of treatments and provides clinicians and policymakers with strategies for improving the health care experiences of disadvantaged groups.
