Working With Burmese Patients: Understanding Historical and Cultural Contexts to Improve Health Care Access and Health Status.

This module is part of a larger initiative to provide current and future health care providers with information to empower them to supply culturally responsive care to Burmese and Burmese American patients and their families. We offer recommendations for improving care for this patient population on individual, provider, and systemic levels. We hope that this module will inspire opportunities to advocate for change in policy and health care/research funding for Burmese and Burmese American patients.
