Applying the Gaining Access and Treatment Equity (GATE) Framework to Enhance Culturally Responsive Integrated Primary Care
Description
This presentation will outline the Gaining Access and Treatment Equity (GATE; Bridges, 2023) Framework for culturally responsive clinical care and discuss how it can be applied in integrated primary care settings. The speakers will give an overview of how the GATE Framework conceptualizes barriers to care that diverse populations face (i.e., perceived need, attitudinal, structural, and clinical barriers) and give examples of practice implications and strategies individuals and health care organizations can employ to better serve diverse populations.
