Implicit race bias has been associated with poor patient provider-communication, less trust and confidence in the provider and poor patient-centered communication with Black patients. We developed and evaluated an online course for academic teaching faculty and others titled, Implicit Bias in the Clinical and Learning Environment. We measured provider implicit and explicit attitudes and stereotypes about race and gender, pre and post bias awareness, pre and post patient centered communication, and elicited providers’ reflections on impact of course on their teaching and practice. We report providers’ pre and post course bias awareness, pre and post patient centered communication and their reflections on impact of the course on teaching and clinical practice.
