LGBT Families: Improving Access to Better Health Care

Increasing numbers of LGBT people are forming unions and building families in an ever-changing legal landscape. In order to increase access to quality care for LGBT couples and families, health care providers may need to familiarize themselves with the current local and federal policies that affect LGBT health care. In this webinar, Michael Porcello, Legislative Counsel for the Family Equality Council, will focus on health care access issues for LGBT couples and families, including implications from the Affordable Care Act, and will offer suggestions for improving health care access for LGBT families. This webinar is the first of a two-part series on LGBT families being offered by the Family Equality Council and the National LGBT Health Education Center.
