Area of Science:

  • Dermatology
  • Public Health
  • Health Services Research

Background:

  • Over 30 million Americans lack affordable healthcare access.
  • Free clinics serve as crucial access points for medical services, including dermatology.
  • Patient populations at free clinics and academic medical centers may have distinct needs.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To compare dermatology patient populations at a free clinic and an academic medical center.
  • To identify areas for improvement in dermatologic care delivery at free clinics.
  • To inform strategies for enhancing healthcare access for underserved populations.

Main Methods:

  • Retrospective chart review of dermatology patients.
  • Data collected from Birmingham Free Clinic (BFC) and University of Pittsburgh Medical Center (UPMC).
  • Analysis of patient data from January 2020 to May 2022.

Main Results:

  • Dermatology patient populations at BFC and UPMC were analyzed.
  • Key areas for improvement identified include communication with limited English proficiency (LEP) patients.
  • Need for enhanced skin care education and social/scheduling support services (transportation, insurance assistance, triage) was highlighted.

Conclusions:

  • Dermatologic care at free clinics can be optimized through targeted interventions.
  • Strengthening communication channels is vital for LEP patients.
  • Comprehensive support services are essential for improving patient outcomes and access to care.
