American Medical Association amends nondiscrimination policy to include gender identity
This past week, the American Medical Association amended their nondiscrimination policy to include "gender identity", providing a huge step forward in the language of inclusiveness in the medical field.
The implications of this change can be far-reaching, as the policy protects not only medical professionals but also medical students and patients from discrimination on the basis of gender identity.
Read the policy as accepted by the AMA here (link is a doc file).
