Practice style variation in Medicaid and non-Medicaid children with complex chronic conditions undergoing surgery.
With differential payment between Medicaid and Non-Medicaid services, researchers asked whether style-of-practice differs between similar Medicaid and Non-Medicaid children with complex chronic conditions (CCCs) undergoing surgery. They found that treatment style differences between Medicaid and Non-Medicaid children were small, suggesting little disparity with in-hospital surgical care for patients with CCCs operated on within Children's Hospitals.
