Within-physician differences in patient sharing between primary care physicians and cardiologists who treat white and black patients with heart disease.
Using Medicare fee-for-service files, researchers mapped physician networks for Medicare patients and examined Black-White differences in patient sharing between primary care physicians and cardiologists. The results indicated that primary care physicians shared Black patients with more cardiologists than White patients; Black patient-sharing networks were less tightly connected in all but office settings. The researchers concluded that Black-White differences in patient sharing may contribute to disparities in cardiac care.
