Over 61 million Americans have disabilities, and increasing evidence documents that they experience health care disparities. While many factors likely contribute to these disparities, one little-studied but potential cause involves physicians’ perceptions of people with disability. Our survey of 714 practicing U.S. physicians nationwide found that 82.4% reported that people with significant disability have worse quality of life than nondisabled people. Only 40.7% of physicians were very confident about their ability to provide equal quality care to patients with disability, just 56.5% strongly agreed they welcome disabled patients into their practices, and 18.1% strongly agreed that the health care system often treats these patients unfairly. More than 30 years after the Americans with Disabilities Act, these findings about physicians’ perceptions of this population raise questions about ensuring equitable care to people with disability. Potentially biased views among physicians could perhaps contribute to persistent health care disparities affecting people with disability.
