Access to Pediatric Asthma Specialty Care: A Survey and Geospatial Analysis Across a Rural State
Nearly one in five children in Maine would be required to travel more than 60 minutes to reach an asthma specialist, nearly one in five allergy providers do not accept children, and few out of state providers accept Maine Medicaid insurance. Future research should assess the impacts of these barriers on children's receipt of care.
