I don't think that's true. Seeking a second opinion based on the race of the first doctor, variable treatment compliance by race of prescriber, willingness to discuss and understand a condition, poorer quality concordance, declining to follow a referral to a specialist of a certain race, etc, are all examples of "small" decisions someone could take based on racism that would likely show up in aggregate in mortality outcomes.
