Abstract

For more than a decade, the Joint Commission has recommended the routine collection and use of sexual orientation and gender identity (SOGI) data as a way to help the medical community understand and address the disparities that lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, queer, and intersex (LGBTQI+) people experience throughout their lifetimes, and especially when seeking health care.... We believe health professionals and researchers need to proceed with SOGI data collection but should do so with caution.
