Non-Discrimination Information
Discrimination is Against the Law
CoxHealth complies with applicable Federal civil rights laws and does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, ancestry, national origin, religion, veteran status, age, disability, or sex (consistent with the scope of sex discrimination described at 45 CFR § 92.101(a)(2)), including sex characteristics; intersex traits; pregnancy or related conditions; sexual orientation; gender identity, and sex stereotypes). CoxHealth does not exclude people or treat them less favorably because of race, color, ancestry, national origin, religion, veteran status, age, disability, or sex.
CoxHealth provides people with disabilities reasonable modifications and free appropriate auxiliary aids and services to communicate effectively with us, such as qualified sign language interpreters and written information in other formats (large print, audio, accessible electronic formats, other formats) as well as free language assistance services to people whose primary language is not English, which may include qualified interpreters and information written in other languages.
If you need reasonable modifications, appropriate auxiliary aids and services, or language assistance services, contact the Civil Rights Coordinator.
If you believe that CoxHealth has failed to provide these services or discriminated in another way on the basis of race, color, ancestry, national origin, religion, veteran status, age, disability, or sex, you can file a grievance with:
