In the 2018 volume of Health Equity (vol. 2, no.1; 131–138), the article entitled “Healthcare Experiences of Underrepresented Lesbian and Bisexual Women: A Focus Group Qualitative Study” by LaVaccare et al. requires correction.
In the originally published article, the data in Table 3 showed the “Full sample count” for Caucasian as 13 and for African American as 8. The percentage for the “Full sample count” of Latina showed 21.05. The data of Table 3 has been modified as shown below in gray shading.
