Beschreibung

Social diversity may affect health outcomes in situations when access to health care is limited for certain social groups. Although non-discriminatory access to healthcare service is one of the basic principles of medical ethics and health law, there are still debates regarding the implementation of this concept in practice. Barriers such as inadequate legal entitlements, language, different concepts of health and disease, socio-economic factors or attitudes of healthcare professionals can hinder equity in access to healthcare. The authors of contributions gathered in this volume analyze challenges in access to healthcare for various minority groups and propose possible solutions. With contributions by Marjana Bernot, Robert Bitterlich, Lucka Boltezar, Nuska Caks Jager, Vida Drame Orozim, Maja Ebert Moltara, Nina Fritz, Nada Gosic, Ines Gumilar, Maja Ivanetic Pantar, Igor Karnjus, Blaz Kovac, Alenka Kraigher, Sabina Licen, Mateja Lopuh, Pawel Luków, Jana Luntz, Adrijana Martinovic, Amir Muzur, Zala Peterka, Ana Poscic, Mirko Prosen, Mojca Ramsak, Danica Rotar Pavlic, Stephanie Schierack, Tajana Tomak, Alenka Janko Spreizer, Florian Steger, Heike Vogelbusch and Erika Zelko.
