| 摘要 | Nearly two-thirds of children with special health care needs (CSHCN) are insured through employer-based health insurance. This four-page issue brief summarizes recent studies investigating utilization and cost patterns for a large sample of CSHCN enrolled in two commercial managed care plans. CSHCN incur almost half the total costs of care for children in these plans, even though they are only 12 percent of enrolled children, and there are opportunities to improve care for this high-cost, high-risk group. Key to implementing quality improvement efforts is finding an effective, broad-based strategy for identifying this population. In addition, an effective quality improvement project needs a team of health plan staff with experience in pediatrics, quality assessment, and data management. To support these efforts, the Maternal and Child Health Bureau has contracted with Mathematica to offer technical assistance and targeted financial support to help interested commercial managed care plans develop, implement, and evaluate quality improvement initiatives for CSHCN. |
