Temporal Disparities in Healthcare

Temporal disparities in healthcare refer to differences in access to medical services based on the timing of care. These disparities can occur when certain groups of people receive medical attention at different times, leading to delays in diagnosis, treatment, or follow-up care. Factors causing temporal disparities include varying availability of healthcare providers, differences in appointment times, and socioeconomic status. Addressing these disparities is crucial to ensuring that everyone receives timely and effective healthcare, ultimately improving health outcomes and equity within the healthcare system.
