Differences by Sexual Orientation in Patient-Centered Care Outcomes for Veterans Utilizing Primary Care Services at the Veterans Health Administration.

This study examined the differences by sexual orientation in patient-centered care outcomes (including health care experiences and health-related screening) of veterans utilizing Veterans Health Administration (VHA) primary care. VHA's adapted version of the Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems was used to compare the health care experience of primary care services among sexual minority (SM) and heterosexual veterans. Health care experience measures were dichotomized to "always" versus "less" and stratified by SM status.
