Abstract

Providing medical care for uninsured children with nonmalignant hematologic diagnoses presents unique challenges to medical providers and multidisciplinary staff. Financial and psychosocial stressors can hinder optimal care of the uninsured child. Maximizing coverage of medical costs through patient enrollment in state and charity care programs and capitalizing upon community partnerships can help providers achieve comprehensive care for these children. Collaboration between primary care providers, subspecialists, and multidisciplinary teams can be optimized to facilitate provision of hematology care for uninsured children. We detail our experience in establishing these collaborations to improve access to subspecialty care for children with nonmalignant hematologic disorders.
