The effect of funding cuts on the utilization of an oral pathology diagnostic service.

Abstract:

AIM:To examine what impact the loss of funding had on the utilization of the oral pathology service. METHODOLOGY:Biopsy records were retrieved and examined in the two year period before and after the elimination of the subsidies in 2003. RESULTS:After the loss of funding, there was a 31% decrease in the number of specimens submitted from practitioners in private practice, with the greatest drop noted in submissions from endodontists. CONCLUSION:Despite the immediate decrease in the number of biopsies submitted after the introduction of fee-for-service, the number of specimens being submitted appears to be on the rise again, as practitioners appear to recognize the value of a specialized oral pathology diagnostic service.
