Letter Grade
Disparity Ratio
Interpretation
A 1.0-1.4 Little or no disparity.
B 1.5-1.9 A disparity exists and should be monitored, and may require intervention.
C 2.0-2.4 The disparity requires intervention.
D 2.5-2.9 Major interventions are needed.
F ≥3.0 Urgent interventions are needed.
ReferenceGroup
The group with the best rates (and 20 or more cases). It is the group to which all other groups are compared and therefore will not receive a rating.
Not Enough Data
Groups with less than 20 cases or events during time period. Disparity ratios and ratings are not calculated for populations with less than 20 cases pr events during the comparison time period.
Legend for Disparity Ratios and Letter Grades
Source: New Mexico Department of Health, 2010 Racial and Ethnic Health Disparities Report Card, http://www.health.state.nm.us/dpp/DPPR.htm accessed 9-15-11
The Disparities Ratio is the score for the disparate group over the reference group. The reference group is the group with the best rates. For example, if Hispanics have the best rate for a measure, with 150 cases per 1000 (making them the reference group), and Whites have a rate of 300 per 1000, 300/150=2.0, so the disparity ratio for Whites would be 2.0, meaning their rate is twice as high as the lowest rate.

The Texas population has grown at a rate substantially outpacing that of the United States. Also growing at a very fast pace, Dallas County has expanded by over 20%, or more than 500,000 thousand people, from 1990 to 2010.
The Dallas-Fort Worth area is one of the largest in the nation. Dallas-Fort Worth, the fourth largest metro area in the country, grew by 23.4% in the past decade. Dallas County is the 9th largest county in the country, growing by over 20% from 2000 to 2010. The city of Dallas is the 9th largest city in the country, but only grew by a modest 0.8% in the 2000’s.

Notes:
Age Adjusted Death Rates: Death rates that control for the effects in population age distributions. The centers for DiseaseControl and Prevention established the standard population weights for direct age adjustments. The need for age adjustment becomes particularly important when cause-specific mortality is of interest. Unadjusted rates for chronic diseases (cardiovascular diseases, cancers, or chronic lower respiratory diseases) may appear to be higher for older populations when compared to a younger population. With age-adjustment those differences may be reduced or even reversed. A mechanism for adjusting the age structure differences is needed to determine if there really are mortality differences between two populations. By applying age-specific mortality rates to a standard population, direct standardization controls for differences in population composition. Mortality trends can be more accurately compared along geographic, temporal, or race/ethnicity lines, etc. In short, standardization lets us look at what the death rate would be in one population if that population had the same age structure as the standard population. Beginning with 1999 events, the United States year 2000 population is used as the standard for age-adjusting.
