摘要

这项研究凸显了美国成人斜视发病率与为医保受益人实施成人斜视手术的外科医生数量有限之间的差距。在研究期间，只有 12.2% 的小儿眼科医生为成人斜视手术向医保开具账单。此外，进行成人斜视手术的外科医生的地域差异也很明显，各州的外科医生与患者的比例相差悬殊。总体而言，该研究对外科医生是否足以满足成人斜视病例的需求提出了担忧。

Geographic disparities and surgical trends of strabismus surgery among Medicare beneficiaries (2016-2021)

This study highlights the disparity between the prevalence of adult strabismus in the United States and the limited number of surgeons performing adult strabismus surgery on Medicare beneficiaries. Only 12.2% of pediatric ophthalmologists billed Medicare for adult strabismus procedures during the study period. Additionally, geographic disparities of surgeons performing adult strabismus surgery were evident, with drastically different surgeon-to-patient ratios by state. Overall, the study raises concerns about the adequacy of the surgeon supply to meet the demand for adult strabismus cases.
