Pediatric Resident Abstracts and Presentations


Kaiser Permanente Affiliation

The affiliation with the Ohio Permanente Medical Group (Kaiser Permanente) has added an important dimension to the residency program. Residents are exposed to a community based general pediatric practice with an opportunity to learn how to practice medicine in a managed care environment. There is a unique opportunity to learn how to manage hospital patients where patient care is overseen by a large insurance group.

Furthermore, when the patient population is combined with the Clinic's patient population, there is an unmatched learning experience. The common community acquired diseases are managed together with the complex referral patient side-by-side. In this environment, the resident learns the subtle variations in the disease process that sharpens the clinical skills to properly diagnose and treat the broad range of diseases seen by today's physician.
