Barriers to Healthcare for Transgender Individuals.
Background: Transgender (TG) clients experience provider bias, erasure, refusal to treat, and violence. Objective: The purpose of this article is to identify barriers to healthcare for TG individuals and discuss recommendations for providers treating this population. Methods: Literature review of prime research was conducted using the Whittemore and Knafl methodology (2005). Results: Evidence suggests that barriers to TG healthcare include lack of provider TG knowledge and trans sensitivity, lack of provider communication, and lack of emotional and physical safe healthcare environments. Conclusions: TG clients face barriers to accessing healthcare, and specific recommendations to improve provider practice will decrease these barriers. Implications for Practice: Lack of provider education affects TG individuals accessing quality healthcare. Recommendations to improve provider practice are essential to improve care.
