Description
An account of the resource
Missed appointment rates (MAR) of pediatric patients insured by Medicaid and seen in a traditional hospital-based continuity (teaching) clinic were compared to the rates for the same patients after their care had been transitioned to a community practice. The hypothesis is that when rewarded with shorter waiting times, a less chaotic environment, and more pediatrician continuity, the MAR for patients insured by Medicaid would be lower in the practice setting than it had been in continuity clinic. The MAR decreased from 33% in the continuity clinic in 1999 to 18% in the community practice in 2001 (p\textless0.01). It was also hypothesized that the MAR for patients insured by Medicaid would be higher in practices with a higher percentage of Medicaid appointments. Among 15 hospital-owned pediatric practices, the MAR for patients insured by Medicaid was positively correlated with the percentage of total appointments that were made by patients insured by Medicaid (correlation coefficient 0.706 [p\textless0.01]).
