LGBTQ+患者のサポート医療は,予防ケアを強化し,研究成果を発表する. Supportive healthcare for LGBTQ+ patients boosts preventive care uptake, study finds.

イリノイ大学の新研究では,LGBTQ+患者は予防医療サービスに従事し,健康上のリスクや費用を軽減する傾向にあることがわかった. A new study from the University of Illinois Chicago finds that LGBTQ+ patients receiving supportive healthcare are more likely to keep up with preventive services, reducing health risks and costs. 950人以上の参加者を対象とした調査では,支援を受けたと感じる患者は,必要不可欠のスクリーニングや予防接種を受ける確率が高い一方,差別に直面している患者は24%に満たない. The research, involving over 950 participants, shows patients who felt supported were more likely to get essential screenings and vaccinations, while those facing discrimination were 24% less likely to receive colorectal cancer screenings. 厚生労働省令で格段に評価された健康保険制度では,多くのLGBTQ+患者が陽性の療養経験を報告し,公衆衛生に関する非差別的なケアの重要性を強調した. States with health systems rated highly in the Human Rights Campaign's Healthcare Equality Index had more LGBTQ+ patients reporting positive care experiences, highlighting the importance of nonjudgmental care for public health.
