National Origin Discrimination

National Origin Discrimination
A surgical specialist at a clinic in your network has had a complaint lodged against him. A patient has alleged that the specialist discriminated against her because she is an immigrant from Uzbekistan. The patient says that although she was initially able to make an appointment, when she showed up for her first visit and requested a professional Uzbek language interpreter she was told that the specialist would not be able to treat her after all, because arranging for an interpreter was just “too expensive.” The patient believes that this is illegal denial of a “reasonable accommodation” under federal civil rights law, and is asking Imperial Unlimited to fix the problem or she will file a federal complaint. Your task is to find out whether this was legally an act of discrimination, what the rights of the patient are in this case, and what obligations Imperial United has to remedy it.
