Take action for AZ children through care coordination: A bridge to action
Elizabeth Reifsnider
Eugene Washington Patient Centered Outcomes Research Institute (PCORI) Engagement Program
The award, which is the first PCORI award for ASU, will allow the research team to build a broad-based coalition to address the care-coordination needs of children with special health-care needs (CSHCN) and their families. The children who are the focus of the project have chronic physical, developmental, behavioral or emotional conditions that require health care and related services beyond what is typically required for children without these conditions. This project is designed to address the families’ needs for care coordination through creating a statewide (Arizona) system that can be tested through patient-centered outcomes research.
