Pediatrica Health Group Enters the Delray Beach Market with the Acquisition of Delray Pediatrics
'…you shouldn't have to move mountains to access quality health care...'
For over 20 years, Dr. Malcolm has been an advocate for marginalized families in her community. By offering substantially more than just the first call for a sick visit or a milestone check-up for a newborn, Dr. Malcolm recognizes the obstacles that impede access to care for families struggling financially or those who face a language barrier. She has been intentional in her approach - employing a multi-lingual team, welcoming Medicaid families, and she stays up-to-date on clinical research to support the areas of greatest need for her patients, including ADHD, asthma, and autism, to name just a few. 'It's overwhelming enough as a parent to see your child suffering – you shouldn't have to move mountains to access quality health care. When we help families in need, we help the community to be stronger and healthier, too. That's good enough reason for me to do things differently," commented Dr. Malcolm.
This approach to care is one of the many reasons Roberto Palenzuela, Pediatrica Health Group CEO, pursued the acquisition of Delray Pediatrics. "Dr. Malcolm gets it. She recognizes what we recognized early on – by making quality care accessible early in life, we create a ripple effect for generations to come. Next Generation Care SM not only creates healthier communities here and now, but it also has the power to ease the burdens on our healthcare systems for years to come as kids grow into healthy adults. It all starts here,' notes Mr. Palenzuela.
Welcome, Dr. Tayina Gilles...
In related news, making good on Pediatrica's commitment to increase capacity and welcome more families to their practice, the Delray Beach location has added a new provider to the team, Dr. Tayina Gilles. Combining evidence-based care with a warm, grounded approach, Dr. Gilles is passionate about supporting families through every stage of childhood. Making each visit one where children and families feel safe, understood, and empowered to partner in their care with her, Dr. Gilles values building meaningful relationships that grow right alongside her patients.

Republicans respond to data showing 10M will soon lose Medicaid coverage
(The Center Square) – Democrats are sounding the alarm over a new analysis showing that the One Big Beautiful Bill Act will cause millions of Medicaid recipients to lose their current coverage. According to the Congressional Budget Office's newest estimate, Medicaid reforms in the One Big Beautiful Bill Act will result in roughly 10 million people losing eligibility for their current health care plan by 2034. 'This latest analysis by the nonpartisan Congressional Budget Office confirms that the deeply unpopular One Big Ugly Law is also deeply unfair,' House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, D-N.Y., said in a response statement. 'The American people deserve better than this cruel Republican budget scam.' Republicans, however, have pointed out that the breakdown of the numbers offers a different perspective. Out of the 10 million affected, 5.3 million are able-bodied adults without dependents. Under the OBBBA, they could still remain on Medicaid, so long as they participate in work-related activities at least 80 hours per month. The work requirements would not apply to pregnant women; minors and seniors; foster youth under 26; Tribal members; the medically frail; those already meeting TANF or SNAP work requirements; caregivers with young dependents; or the currently and recently incarcerated. Another 3.7 million current Medicaid recipients set to lose coverage will still have access to some other form of government-sponsored health insurance. These individuals are primarily dual enrollees in Medicare and Medicaid, or those who are erroneously enrolled in Medicaid in more than one state. The former group would lose Medicaid but could retain Medicare, while the latter would be eligible to claim their Medicaid coverage only in their actual state of residence. The remaining 1 million impacted individuals are noncitizens who do not meet immigration status requirements for Medicaid enrollment. Those noncitizens have nonetheless received coverage under taxpayer-funded, state-sponsored Medicaid programs. 'The prolonged lie exacerbated by Democrats that 17 million individuals will lose health care coverage from the One Big Beautiful Bill Act has finally been dispelled,' House Committee on Energy and Commerce Chair Brett Guthrie, R-Ky., said Monday. 'It's easy to scare people with coverage loss estimates, but the facts are clear – the vast majority of these individuals are either choosing to lose coverage or aren't actually eligible for Medicaid, and nearly all are eligible for other forms [of] coverage.' Overall federal spending on Medicaid will still grow by 30% over the next decade, provided that Republicans refrain from further enrollee-reducing changes in another 'big, beautiful bill,' which GOP leaders are considering.
