The Differential Impact of Medicaid Expansion on Racial Disparities Following Peripheral Vascular Intervention
Peripheral artery disease (PAD) disproportionately affects Black and low socioeconomic status patients, who are less likely to have health insurance and routine health care visits. Medicaid expansion (ME) has improved insurance rates and access to care, potentially benefitting these patients. We sought to assess the impact of ME on racial disparities in peripheral vascular intervention (PVI) for PAD.

The Differential Impact of Medicaid Expansion on Disparities in Outcomes Following Peripheral Vascular Intervention
Peripheral artery disease (PAD) disproportionately affects nonwhite, Hispanic/Latino, and low socioeconomic status patients, who are less likely to have insurance and routine healthcare visits. Medicaid expansion (ME) has improved insurance rates and access to care, potentially benefitting these patients. We sought to assess the impact of ME on disparities in outcomes after peripheral vascular intervention (PVI) for PAD.
