Abstract
This chapter provides an overview of needs assessment for the Black and Minority Ethnic Groups (BMEGs). These groups are so diverse in terms ofmigration history, culture, language, religion and disease profiles that in this chapter we emphasise general issues pertinent to commissioning services. This is not a systematic review of literature on all diseases affecting BMEGs – the reader is referred to other chapters in this needs assessment series for details on specific disorders. A number of general points are first provided as background to the chapter.
