Location, Payer Type, and Gender as Drivers of Burn Scar Reconstruction Utilization

Geographic variability in burn scar reconstruction use may reflect less dependence on surgery to achieve favorable functional outcomes; however, these differences may represent barriers requiring further evaluation.
