Nationally, African Americans have a significantly higher rate of hospice underutilization than Caucasians. Research suggests this disparity is due to patient preference, but recent studies suggest physician bias as a factor. This quantitative, causal-comparative study examined if statistically significant differences exist in perceptions non-physician medical providers hold towards hospice services, and if differences are due to provider race, patient race, or the interaction between provider race and patient race. The Comparison of Attitudes toward Hospice Referral between African American and White American Physicians Tool was used on 563 nurses and social workers affiliated with a Southwestern University and a national Facebook group. Guided by the theoretical framework of Looking glass self, it was hypothesized African American non-physician medical providers would hold more negative perceptions towards hospice referrals than their Caucasian counterparts, that statistically significant differences exist in the perceptions held between non-physician medical providers who primarily serve Caucasian patients in their practice and non-physician medical providers who do not, and that a statistically significant interaction between the race of the provider and the race of patients served exist. A 2 by 2 Factorial MANOVA and follow-up ANOVAs indicated that race of the provider was statistically significant on 6 of the 17 items (Wilks' Lambda = .923, F (18,510) = 2.376, p = .001) as African American non-physician medical providers held more negative perceptions towards hospice referrals. However, race of patients served or the interaction of race of provider and race of patients were not statistically significant (p > .05).
