Family Medicine Residents Intentions to Provide Gender Affirming Care
Based on a 2023 survey of second year family medicine residents, 29% report that they plan to incorporate gender affirming care (GAC) into their future practice with those training in states with legal restrictions on GAC being less likely to do so. By identifying and supporting future health care professionals committed to providing these services, policy makers and workforce planners can ensure that there are enough trained professionals to meet growing demand and ensure equitable access.
