Closing the gap: Enhancing quality pediatric dermatologic care through project Extension for Community Healthcare Outcomes (ECHO).

ABSTRACT

This study focused on evaluating Extension for Community Healthcare Outcomes (ECHO) participating primary care clinician's (PCC's) diagnostic and treatment accuracy of pediatric dermatologic conditions. To evaluate this, pediatric cases presented to Dermatology ECHO by PCCs with questions regarding diagnosis, treatment regimen, or both were analyzed. After PCC case presentation, the hub team of dermatologists facilitated case-based discussion and provided the presenter with mentorship and guidance regarding diagnosis and treatment of their patient.
