Seven databases (Academic Search Complete, CINAHL Complete, Medline with Full Text, PubMed, Web of Science, Cochrane, and Scopus) were systematically searched.

Most employed cross-sectional surveys or qualitative descriptive designs. Identified barriers to hospice utilization included language and communication challenges; cultural values and beliefs surrounding death; family-centered decision-making and filial piety; religious influences such as beliefs in karma and suffering; and broader issues like low acculturation and mistrust of the healthcare system.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Conclusion<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>Enhancing culturally competent hospice care is a promising approach to addressing disparities in end-of-life care for AAs. Comprehensive cultural competence training is needed for healthcare providers, especially physicians, nurse practitioners, registered nurses, and social workers involved in hospice and palliative care. Further research is recommended to identify the core components of hospice care and develop effective interventions tailored to diverse AA subgroups.<\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1177\/10499091251352188","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,14]],"date-time":"2025-06-14T09:01:46Z","timestamp":1749891706000},"page":"993-1006","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":2,"title":["Addressing the Underutilization of Hospice Care in Asian American Communities: A Scoping Review"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"43","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-6552-5949","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Tuzhen","family":"Xu","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Prairie View A&M University"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Dan","family":"Song","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Texas A&M University-Corpus Christi"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"given":"Gloria M.","family":"Rose","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Prairie View A&M University"}],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,6,14]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_3_3_2_2","volume-title":"The Asian Population: 2000","author":"Barnes JS","year":"2002","unstructured":"Barnes JS, Bennett CE.
