Summary

This research quantitatively demonstrates disparities in healthcare quality experienced by transgender patients. Using objective clinical quality measures rather than personal testimony alone, it shows transgender patients receive recommended treatments less often. Encouragingly, providers with greater experience treating transgender patients deliver more equitable care, highlighting the importance of education and clinical exposure.
