	DG DISPATCH - ACG: Diverticulitis, GI Bleeding Must Be Treated By Specialists (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		Provenzale based her conclusions on an analysis of 2,350 articles from the medical literature that was undertaken to evaluate the care provided by gastroenterologists and generalists (internists, family practitioners and general surgeons) for a range of gastrointestinal (GI) conditions.
		Compared to general surgeons and family practitioners, the care provided by gastroenterologists for GI bleeding and diverticulitis significantly shortened the length of hospitalization, reduced overall costs and decreased the time from endoscopy to discharge, she said.
		Overall, 85 percent of gastroenterologists correctly diagnosed celiac disease versus 63 percent of internists and seven percent of general surgeons and more adequately diagnosed colorectal cancer and prescribed antimicrobials for peptic ulcer disease based on guidelines issued by the National Institutes of Health (NIH).

	British Medical Journal: Risk among gastroenterologists of acquiring Helicobacter pylori infection' case-control study
		As many patients undergoing endoscopy are positive for H pylori, gastroenterologists are likely to be exposed to infected saliva and gastric juice, and this could increase their risk of acquiring H pylori infection.
		Between 1989 and 1991, 92 gastroenterologists and 168 healthy control subjects matched for age and race were investigated by using a questionnaire and a [sup.13]C urea breath test.
		The gastroenterologists were recruited during the annual meeting of the Swiss Society of Gastroenterology and Hepatology, while the control subjects were selected from participants in a large study of H pylori prevalence.

		They say, however, that at least half of all colonoscopies are performed by gastroenterologists, that the vast majority of all upper endoscopic-type procedures are performed by gastroenterologists, and that flexible sigmoidoscopies are seldom performed by gastroenterologists these days, as the tendency is to go directly to a colonoscopy.

	ACP Online - Deselecting Gastroenterologists In Managed Care Networks (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-08)
		We are concerned that the Empire policy makes an arbitrary decision regarding the appropriate setting in which the gastroenterologist furnishes these procedures without regard for the condition of each individual patient.
		The rationale contained in the letter that "a recent study by the federal government [that] demonstrates that all three of these sites are equally safe and effective for properly selected patient" fails to provide adequate justification for a policy with such dramatic patient care implications.
		We are interested in receiving additional information on the Empire process for deselecting gastroenterologists from its networks based on site of service for upper endoscopies and colonoscopies because we are concerned about its impact on patient care.

		Although other types of physicians perform some of the same procedures as gastroenterologists, health plans indicated that they could not successfully market a health benefits product in the Lehigh Valley area if gastroenterologists were not included on their provider panels.

		Managed care plans and other payers said that gastroenterologists outside the Allentown/Bethlehem area are too far away to be acceptable substitutes for the merging groups.

		The symptoms for stomach ulcers and stomach irritation are the same, and both are usually caused by infection with a single bacteria called helicobacter, but the vast majority of gastroenterologists will not use antibiotics to treat helicobacter infections in their patients unless they also have an ulcer.
		The symptoms of a stomach ulcer are belching, burping and a burning pain in the stomach or chest that worsens with hunger and usually feels better after eating.
