stigma and discrimination

What are the Impacts on Access to Healthcare?

Discrimination in healthcare settings can lead to disparities in the quality of care received by stigmatized groups. For instance, racial and ethnic minorities, people with disabilities, and LGBTQ+ individuals often face barriers to accessing equitable healthcare. This can result in delayed diagnoses, inadequate treatment, and poorer health outcomes. Addressing these disparities is crucial for improving overall public health.
