With the increasing diversity of the United States' population, physicians are more likely to encounter situations that require the delivery of culturally competent care, access to a vast array of language services and supportive health care organizations.

Providing culturally-competent care may further your organization’s implementation and adherence to the Office of Minority Health’s national standards on Culturally and Linguistically Appropriate Services (CLAS), which aim to increase access to health care for minorities, reduce disparities and improve the quality of care.
