Meeting Dermatologic Needs in an Uninsured Population: Lessons Learned from a Referrals Cohort at a Student-Run Free Clinic.

Unmet dermatologic needs of the uninsured patient population are important to identify and address, especially as the COVID-19 pandemic has introduced additional barriers of access to care. We describe the successful collaboration between a student-run free clinic and dermatology practice since 2012, highlighting excellent time to appointment intervals and resolution rates as well as the associated modest financial cost. We believe that the information provided in our report may serve as a proof of concept and facilitate the implementation of such collaborations throughout the United States.
