Many were<br \/>\nnot fluent in English and had to cover these services out of pocket. It was<br \/>\nparticularly heart-wrenching to see undocumented individuals bear such<br \/>\nfinancial burdens, especially when they often didn&#8217;t qualify for Medicare or<br \/>\nMedicaid. Several were job-seeking, without any form of financial assistance.<br \/>\nOn numerous occasions, patients faced charges they didn&#8217;t understand, and I<br \/>\nstepped in as an interpreter to guide them to the appropriate personnel who<br \/>\ncould address their queries. As a Spanish speaker, I not only aided in<br \/>\ninterpretation but also directed them to resources that could help with their<br \/>\nbilling concerns.<\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"margin: 15pt 0in 0in; padding: 0in; cursor: auto; color: inherit;\"><span style=\"cursor: auto; color: inherit;\">In<br \/>\naddition to these challenges, I noticed disparities in how pregnant patients on<br \/>\nMedicaid were treated compared to those with private insurance. At first, I was<br \/>\nnot privy to the complexities of Medicaid, including the adjustments providers<br \/>\noften had to make due to its coverage limitations. Although Medicaid does<br \/>\ntypically cover prenatal care, the specifics\u2014like the number of visits, types<br \/>\nof screenings, or other services\u2014can vary based on state regulations.<\/span><\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Write a paper that discusses how&nbsp;vulnerable populations&nbsp;and the&nbsp;impact of social determinants&nbsp;(income, education, occupation, etc.) and&nbsp;discrimination&nbsp;(implicit bias, residential segregation, negative stereotypes, etc.) create and sustain&nbsp;health inequity&nbsp;(barriers and challenges). &nbsp; &nbsp;Find two&nbsp;peer-reviewed journal articles from 2018 to support your claims.&nbsp; Discuss your personal assumptions, values, beliefs, or biases&nbsp;and how they relate to the ideas, themes, or concepts [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":[],"disciplines":[190],"paper_types":[],"tagged":[],"aioseo_notices":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.goodacademic.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/questions\/34747"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.goodacademic.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/questions"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.goodacademic.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/questions"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.goodacademic.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.goodacademic.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=34747"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.goodacademic.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/questions\/34747\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.goodacademic.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=34747"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"disciplines","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.goodacademic.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/disciplines?post=34747"},{"taxonomy":"paper_types","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.goodacademic.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/paper_types?post=34747"},{"taxonomy":"tagged","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.goodacademic.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tagged?post=34747"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
