"The Effect of Community Type on Access to Orthopedic Services for Medicaid-Insured Patients" (ISSN 2333-794X) examines how community type (urban, suburban, or rural) influences Medicaid-insured patients' ability to secure orthopedic appointments. Findings highlight that Medicaid-insured patients often face significant disparities in access to care, with varying wait times and rejection rates across different geographic locations [1.1]. The study is available through the Journal of Orthopedic Experience & Innovation.
