Quality of Care: Discrimination and the role of social attitudes affect the quality of care we receive. We asked
professionals and community residents to identify the top three barriers which have played a role in the treatment they
received when seeking health services, though due to the subjective nature of the question, these estimates may not be
generalizable to the target population. Type of insurance was commonly cited by both professionals and community
members as the greatest barrier to accessing quality care. Professionals placed greater value on the level of education
and intellectual disabilities as barriers to quality care, while community members cited age and race to be of greatest
concern for adults. These results are identical to those from the overall report, although community members in Hampton
cited race to be a greater barrier than physical disabilities. See Exhibit 30 for a list of these barriers
