Survey finds rampant discrimination in health care

In a new poll, 25% of voters say they have "personally experienced or witnessed discrimination in health care due to race, ethnicity, gender, disability, religion or sexual orientation." The poll, sponsored by Compassion & Choices, an end-of-life care advocacy group, included 1,600 voters from across the United States. "It was striking that one-quarter of voters report that they personally experienced or witnessed discrimination in health care, with an even higher 35% among Black people, 29% among Hispanics and 41% among people who are LGBT," said pollster Amy Simon, a partner at Goodman Simon Strategic Research. "That translates to millions of people who are experiencing health-care discrimination." Negative experiences included patients who said they don t feel heard or have been prescribed insufficient pain medication to ease suffering. " .
