This article states that the AMA (American Medical Association) is working to reduce discrimination in healthcare through physician guidelines, proving articles and videos for healthcare providers to use, and making sure patients and doctors have awareness of their rights. However, they are not doing enough. They show the history of anti-discrimination efforts and describe how they had a committee to ensure anti-discrimination, but it got dissolved in 2016. I think they are not doing nearly enough to prevent discrimination, and should be taking more steps to ensure equality.
