Abstract

By critically evaluating and understanding how under-advocated communities are impacted by healthcare decision markers and cultural competence, future generations of gender-diverse patients will have the opportunity of a better future. In this literature review, an analysis and synthesis of documented historical underrepresentation, inequitable treatment, and recommendations for future generations of healthcare are presented. The critical issue of inequity in healthcare is discussed while providing insight into how gender-diversity must be acknowledged for best inclusive practices. Through understanding social identity and the need for transformational leadership, this synthesis reveals the lack of gender-diverse competent healthcare systems, which are contributing to disparities in health outcomes for TGNC (transgender and gender nonconforming) patients. The overarching goal of this synthesis of knowledge is to transform healthcare management and address the invisible health disparity for the gender-diverse community.
