A comparison of the medical care utilization of children with severe asthma according to insurance type was performed. Subjects were grouped by which type of insurance they had: capitated, fee for service, or Medicaid insurance. Medical records were coded into utilization categories, by presenting complaint, sick- or well-child visit, and if a generalist or specialist provided care during the visit. The Medicaid group had less specialist, sick-child care than the groups with capitated or fee for service insurance. The Medicaid group also had more emergency room visits than the other two groups. The three groups had a similar amount of total physician/clinic visits. Even though similar care was shown to be available for those with Medicaid insurance, this low resource group often uses expensive emergency room care.
