Abstract
This study aimed to identify systemic barriers to healthcare services for cisgender women with minoritized sexual identities living in Georgia and South Carolina. Archival data were analyzed from a survey conducted in 2016. Approximately 1 in 4 women (n = 150) endorsed significant barriers. Regression analyses accounted for 36-67% variance. Consistently significant predictors included long distances to medical facilities (β = 0.85 − 1.91), community stigma (β = 1.03 − 1.89), and shortage of mental healthcare providers (β = 0.61 − 0.94). Additional significant predictors identified sources of socioeconomic barriers. Public health interventions targeting these variables may be particularly impactful.
