| With the 10-year-old girl, I was trying hard not to refer her to a subspecialist. |
| The problem is twofold: low Medicaid payments to providers and a nationwide pediatric subspecialist work force shortage. |
| Children are struggling to get timely medical care, with some waiting almost four months for subspecialist appointments even in communities served by a children's hospital. |
| During their training, candidates will acquire the knowledge base and clinical expertise expected of a subspecialist. |
| Liposuction-assisted lipectomy, usually performed by a subspecialist, can be successful in removing even large lipomas with minimal scarring. |
| A conference call, if needed, between the attending Physician and the specialist or subspecialist from the WorldCare Consortium to discuss the case. |
