This collection is necessary in order to identify the unmet needs of transgender patients at Madigan Army Medical Center. Policy changes (and subsequent reversal) regarding transgender military members has limited transgender patient care and has led to confusion around services provided. Military providers do not generally have experience or special training in caring for the transgender population and may lack the expertise needed for optimal patient care. This activity will develop and distribute an anonymous survey to accomplish the goal of identifying these unmet needs in order to find areas for improvement and optimize transgender care at Madigan Army Medical Center.
