Understanding the Association Between Medical Mistrust and Unmet Medical Care Need in Gender and Sexually Diverse People of Color Assigned Female at Birth.

The present study investigated associations of sexual orientation and/or gender identity-based medical mistrust and racial/ethnic-based medical mistrust, respectively, with unmet medical care need among lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and/or sexually or gender diverse (LGBTQ+) people of color (POC) assigned female at birth (AFAB). We also tested the interaction of the two types of medical mistrust on unmet medical care need. Participants were 266 LGBTQ+ POC AFAB.
