Abstract
Lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender (LGBT) individuals have marked health disparities compared to equivalent heterosexual populations. These disparities are contextual and linked to historical and systematic discrimination in the United States, particularly the legal and medical sectors. Health equity for LGBT people may be addressed in two levels, by healthcare providers and through changes and protections in United States policy.
