Transgender (TG) clients experience provider bias, erasure, refusal to treat, and violence. The purpose of this article is to identify barriers to healthcare for TG individuals and discuss recommendations for providers treating this population. Literature review of prime research was conducted using the Whittemore and Knafl methodology (2005). 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. TG clients face barriers to accessing healthcare, and specific recommendations to improve provider practice will decrease these barriers. Lack of provider education affects TG individuals accessing quality healthcare. Recommendations to improve provider practice are essential to improve care.
跨性别者（TG）客户会经历来自提供者的偏见、忽视、拒绝治疗和暴力。本文的目的是确定 TG 个人获得医疗保健的障碍，并讨论为治疗这一人群的提供者提供建议。使用 Whittemore 和 Knafl 方法（2005）对主要研究进行了文献回顾。有证据表明，TG 医疗保健的障碍包括提供者缺乏 TG 知识和跨性别敏感度、提供者沟通不足以及缺乏情感和身体安全的医疗保健环境。TG 客户在获得医疗保健方面面临障碍，而改善提供者实践的具体建议将减少这些障碍。提供者教育的缺乏会影响 TG 个人获得高质量的医疗保健。改善提供者实践的建议对于改善护理至关重要。
