- W4378172878 abstract "Purpose The eye exam is a critical tool for the prevention, screening, and diagnosis of ocular and systemic conditions. In this study, we characterize county-level variation in eye exam access and utilization for Medicare patients in the United States.Methods This nationwide study uses the Medicare Physician & Other Practitioners – by Provider and Service dataset. We included all ophthalmologists and optometrists who performed eye exams on Medicare beneficiaries within a United States county in 2019. For every county where exams were performed, we calculated the number of practicing vision testing providers, percentage of providers classified as ophthalmologists, and the number of exams per 100 Medicare beneficiaries. Multiple linear regression was used to characterize associations between these variables and county characteristics, including measures of poverty, education, and income.Results In 2019, 28937,540 eye exams were performed by 46,000 providers in 2,291 U.S. counties. In the median county, 34.9 eye exams were provided per 100 Medicare beneficiaries. The average county had 20.1 exam providers, 16.5% of whom were ophthalmologists. There were a median 6.6 eye exam providers for every 10,000 Medicare beneficiaries in the average county. The average provider performed 517.8 exams. Regression showed counties with lower median household incomes, higher poverty rates, or fewer high-school graduates had fewer eye exam providers per 10,000 Medicare beneficiaries and fewer eye exams performed per 100 Medicare beneficiaries.Conclusions We find significant county-level variation in eye exam utilization and provider availability. This reflects broader, well-recognized trends in socioeconomic health disparities in the U.S." @default.
