Abstract
THE LESBIAN, GAY, bisexual, transgender, and queer or
questioning (LGBTQ) population faces a variety of health
disparities, such as barriers to appropriate healthcare access
and other issues that include (but are not limited to) social
stigma, discrimination, and sometimes violations of patient
rights, as noted in a 2017 AHIMA Practice Brief.1 In addition,
the Practice Brief authors stated that according to the National
Alliance on Mental Illness, the LGBTQ population experiences
a higher incidence of a variety of mental and physical
disorders that require special attention.2 These healthcare
concerns include anxiety, depression, substance abuse, and
sexually transmitted infections.
