Title

Discrimination or Refusal to Treat a person

Definition

This category covers discrimination a person might face when seeking medical care, including possibly when the provider refuses to treat them. This covers when doctors are obliged to provide services, or what a person can do if the health care provider says they have an objection to provide services to a certain patient (like women and LGBTQ individuals).
