I propose a transdisciplinary theory of access to healthcare informed by the socio-spatial determinants of health, medical geography, health and human rights, and intersectionality. The socio-spatial determinants of health foreground how space and place structure health at every scale, while health and human rights offer a framework for implementing the right to health through the lens of availability, accessibility, acceptability, and quality. When coupled with the methods for empirical analysis from medical geography and an intersectional critique of how life chances are unevenly distributed based on social power, a new theory emerges.

摘要

I propose a transdisciplinary theory of access to healthcare informed by the socio-spatial determinants of health, medical geography, health and human rights, and intersectionality. The socio-spatial determinants of health foreground how space and place structure health at every scale, while health and human rights offer a framework for implementing the right to health through the lens of availability, accessibility, acceptability, and quality. When coupled with the methods for empirical analysis from medical geography and an intersectional critique of how life chances are unevenly distributed based on social power, a new theory emerges.
