Ethnic group vs. income group?

Is "ethnic group vs. income group" like "the poor vs. the rich"?

But I see no two poles here.

What does "ethnic group" or "income group" mean here?

In a new study, Harvard researchers looked at the effects of the 2006 Massachusetts Health Reform and found that the legislation has led to improvements in insurance coverage as well as a decline in financial barriers to care but has not increased people’s access to a personal physician or improve their self-rated health.

Neither has it reduced healthcare inequalities between ethnic or income groups. These findings are published online in the Journal of General Internal Medicine.

There is no correlation intended. They simply describe two groups in which disparities have been observed. Let me rephrase it for you:

The Massachusetts legislation has not reduced healthcare inequalities between ethnic groups. The Massachusetts legislation has not reduced health care inequalities between income groups.
