The goal of this technical review is to examine critical issues of care coordination for children with special health care needs. It is intended to supplement the more comprehensive Evidence-based Practice Center (EPC) report on care coordination currently under preparation. Experts in the field such as Perrin and colleagues and Stein have described in detail the requirements for providing coordinated care for children with complex medical needs. In addition, professional organizations such as the American Academy of Pediatrics and a variety of advocacy groups and service programs for families with children with special health care needs have developed care coordination strategies and developed very useful guidance materials regarding this issue. These sources, while embracing general principles of care coordination that are relevant for all populations and age groups, emphasize those elements of care that are of particular importance for children with special health care needs. Although quite varied, they tend to be due to (1) the dependence of children on parents or other adult caretakers; (2) the distinct epidemiology of childhood and its implications for the organization of health services; (3) the developmental nature of child health problems and the need to link care with educational institutions; and (4) the special financial basis for child health and related services. The inherent dependence of children on adults acting on their behalf adds a level of complexity to care coordination efforts in that the facilitation, monitoring, and at times the enforcement of this proxy function must always be incorporated into coordinative programs for children. The most important distinctive characteristic of the epidemiology of childhood is that unlike in the elderly, serious chronic illness is relatively rare. This requires that specialized services for children with such disorders are heavily dependent on regional referral centers, programs that maintain the expertise, volume of patients, and resource commitment to address these serious but relatively rare disorders. The developmental nature of childhood implies that the problems and service needs of children will be highly dynamic over time and involve developmental support services, such as early intervention programs, as well as school-based interactions. Because children are the poorest segment of our population, poverty and means-tested public programs, such as Medicaid, are of particular concern in developing and evaluating care coordination efforts for children. In general, these efforts for improving the coordination of care for children with special health care needs have taken two forms: Specialized care coordination interventions for selected clinical populations. These include the use of case managers, the establishment of a medical home, or home care strategies. The structural organization of health care services. The dominant current approach is managed care. What has generally been lacking is an assessment of the evidence regarding the actual impact of care coordination efforts on outcomes for children with special health care needs. In response, this technical review is directed at the evaluative literature, those published reports that attempt to assess the experience of children with special health care needs and their families in response to purposeful care coordination efforts. Specifically, the technical review addresses the following objectives: 1. To identify and critically examine studies that empirically evaluate models of care coordination interventions for children with special health care needs. 2. To identify and critically examine studies that empirically evaluate the impact of managed care on children with special health care needs, particularly those enrolled in Medicaid. 3. To develop recommendations for future research and the evidence related to potential ameliorative action.

The book will focus on three key aspects of delivery of child health services: service integration and coordination, public health measures, and enhancing the quality of care for children. Taking a child-centric view on understanding how health services and systems work the book aims to contribute towards improving children’s health through deepening the understanding of children’s health services.Focusing primarily on the western European countries the book draws on research conducted with child health leaders in ten countries: Austria, Britain, Finland, France, Israel, Italy, Netherlands, Norway, Poland, and Sweden. The chapters include clinical scenarios designed to help identify and describe the various ways in which children and their families negotiate health services when dealing with twelve different conditions. Using clinical scenarios in this way allows the book authors to capture the diverse aspects of each health system as well as assessment and analysis of the challenges involved in each, and their successes and failures.

The integration and coordination of health, education, nutrition, social protection, and other services have the potential to improve the lives of children and their caregivers around the world. However, integration and coordination of policies and programs affecting early childhood development can create both risks and benefits. In different localities, these services are more or less effective in achieving their objectives. They also are more or less coordinated in delivering services to the same recipients, and in some cases services are delivered by integrated multisectoral organizations. The result is a rich arena for policy analysis and change and a complex challenge for public- and private-sector organizations that are seeking to improve the lives of children. To examine the science and policy issues involved in coordinating investments in children and their caregivers, the Forum on Investing in Young Children Globally held a workshop in Hong Kong on March 14-15, 2015. Held in partnership with the Centre for Health Education and Health Promotion and Wu Yee Sun College of the Chinese University of Hong Kong, the workshop brought together researchers, policy makers, program practitioners, and other experts from 22 countries. This report highlights the presentations and discussions of the event.

New collaborative models of health care service delivery are contributing to quality and cost improvements, especially in treating children and families. At the same time, deficits in communication between systems sharing patients can not only lead to confusion and waste, but also to increased risk of harm. Case Management and Care Coordination offers an evidence-based framework, best practices, and clinical common sense to meet this ongoing challenge. Focusing on families of children with chronic health issues, it outlines the processes of case management and care coordination, clarifies the roles and responsibilities of team members, and models streamlined, patient-centered service delivery. This analysis cuts through much of the complexity of case management while emphasizing collaboration, flexibility, and advocacy in pursuing best outcomes for patients. And as an extra dimension of usefulness, the book is accessible to lay readers, empowering families to make informed decisions and have a more active role in their own care. Included in the coverage: Essential skills for integrated case management. Children and youth with special health care needs. Transitional care and case management settings for children and families. Case management and home visitation programs. Managed care and care coordination. Technology and care coordination. Effectively illustrating the possibilities and potential of health care reform, Case Management and Care Coordination is an essential resource for pediatricians and health care professionals, as well as for families of children with special health care needs.

This report examines how communities and groups can shape the content of health services to bring more comprehensive health services to poor children and families. The report is based on a study of 11 comprehensive primary care programs and systems some of which offer school-based services: 4 freestanding community-based programs, 4 local systems or networks, and 3 state maternal and child health programs. Suggested actions include promoting attributes of quality in primary health care programs by improving accessibility, comprehensiveness, coordination with other services and agencies, accountability, and community orientation. The report also advocates restructuring health programs to meet the needs of children by organizing health care systems to respond to changing needs, incorporating case management or care coordination, and involving hospitals in local systems. In addition, the report argues for creating new comprehensive primary care systems that respond to community needs through national health care reform, state policies and programs, and expansion of promising local efforts. The challenge is to create many partnerships that can assess possibilities for local systems development, identify needs and services, and implement the needed changes. Appendixes contain a list of project participants and the case summaries. A glossary is included. (Contains 46 references.) (JB)
