Americans with disabilities face difficulties in trying to get basic medical care, according to a recent study by the Journal of the American Medical Association published.

People with disabilities feel like they were a burden on doctors, nurses and the struggle to provide medical care, said Dr. Kristi Kirschner, a physician at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine.

He said that the impact of the Americans with Disabilities Act of 1990, had more influence in various sectors of society such as transportation and access.

Health care has always been a laggard accessible to persons with disabilities. This is still in its infancy,  said KRISCHNER.

The problem will be over the age,  she said.

More than 30 percent of people over 60 have a physical disability, while many approach baby boomers.
The US Census Bureau said 20 percent of the U.S. population will be over 65 years in 2030, compared with 12 percent now. KRISCHNER said that this is problematic.

Physical disability associated with aging,  he said.

KRISCHNER study revealed a number of problems endemic to people with special needs patients. He said a quadriplegic man who died after falling from a control panel, and many others could not receive proper screening and testing for potentially deadly diseases.

According to the woman whose name was not until Rachel, requires examination of gastrointestinal problems was not available, but in the state. The hospital near Chicago, which was treated, was unable to make a test, which was rejected.

KRISCHNER said experiences like this can be harmful to the soul of the patient, as well.

It increases the feeling of the people who are stigmatized,  he said.  What makes the experience so bad is the sense that we're going to such a burden on people - you are different and anomalous All this creates a problem. There is nothing that a person who was an error or a problem designed to integrate with itself, but for many people.
