Cited in Scopus: 67Addressing the health status and needs of incarcerated youth represents an issue at the nexus of juvenile justice reform and health care reform. Incarcerated youth face disproportionately higher morbidity and higher mortality compared to the general adolescent population. Dental health, reproductive health, and mental health needs are particularly high, likely as a result of lower access to care, engagement in high-risk behaviors, and underlying health disparities. Violence exposure and injury also contribute to the health disparities seen in this population. - Children with Special Health Care Needs

Academic PediatricsVol. 15Issue 5p467–468Published online: July 18, 2015- Moira Szilagyi
- Neal Halfon
Cited in Scopus: 38Life course health science integrates the extensive literature on early brain development, childhood trauma and adversity, epigenetics, developmental psychology, and mental health and teaches us that many adult health problems have their origins early in life.1 The timing, intensity, and cumulative burden of adversities, especially in the relative absence of protective factors, can affect gene expression, the conditioning of stress responses, and the development of immune system function. Individuals affected by a high burden of adverse experiences may adopt compensatory high-risk behaviors that can further erode their health and mental health. - Adverse Childhood Experiences

Academic PediatricsVol. 15Issue 5p493–502Published online: July 13, 2015- Andrew S. Garner
- Heather Forkey
- Moira Szilagyi
Cited in Scopus: 39Demystifying child development is a defining element of pediatric care, and pediatricians have long appreciated the profound influences that families and communities have on both child development and life course trajectories. Dramatic advances in the basic sciences of development are beginning to reveal the biologic mechanisms underlying well-established associations between a spectrum of childhood adversities and less than optimal outcomes in health, education and economic productivity. Pediatricians are well positioned to translate this new knowledge into both practice and policy, but doing so will require unprecedented levels of collaboration with educators, social service providers, and policy makers. - Childhood Challenges–Racial Disparities, Mental Health, Early Intervention, Physical Abuse

Cited in Scopus: 1The Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) has provided substantial coverage for critical groups of children and youth since its inception in the 1990s. Meant to cover children in households with incomes greater than financial eligibility for Medicaid but unable to obtain health insurance through a parent's workplace, CHIP has played a major role in achieving the lowest rate of uninsurance among America's children ever.1 With current funding through the Affordable Care Act (ACA) (and due to expire in September 2015), CHIP also serves, along with Medicaid's Early and Periodic Screening, Diagnosis, and Treatment program, as health insurance tailored specifically to the needs of children. - Introduction

Care Coordination, the Family-Centered Medical Home, and Functional Disability Among Children With Special Health Care Needs
Academic PediatricsVol. 15Issue 2p185–190Published online: October 9, 2014- Jonathan S. Litt
- Marie C. McCormick
Cited in Scopus: 33Children with special health care needs (CSHCN) are at increased risk for functional disabilities. Care coordination has been shown to decrease unmet health service use but has yet been shown to improve functional status. We hypothesize that care coordination services lower the odds of functional disability for CSHCN and that this effect is greater within the context of a family-centered medical home. A secondary objective was to test the mediating effect of unmet care needs on functional disability. - Commentary
The Importance of the Family Voice in Quality Measure Development for Children's Health Care
Academic PediatricsVol. 14Issue 5SupplementS8–S9Published in issue: September, 2014- Carolyn Allshouse
Cited in Scopus: 3In 1985, when our youngest son was born with complex medical needs, my husband and I found ourselves learning how to advocate for our son and our family in the health care system. We soon recognized that we could use our experiences to improve how care was provided for others. In the 1980s, families were not routinely allowed to be involved in their child's care in the hospital, or even allowed to stay with their child during hospital physician rounds and many clinical procedures. Families were usually excluded from participation in the development of the care plan for their child. - Commentary

Cited in Scopus: 2When the Children's Health Insurance Program Reauthorization Act (CHIPRA) was passed in 2009, the secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services was tasked with identifying an initial core set of measures that state Medicaid programs and the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) could voluntarily use to reflect the quality of health care being delivered to children enrolled in these 2 programs. This effort was overdue for this joint federal–state program, as each state had developed its own quality measures, definitions, and performance thresholds, limiting the ability to compare Medicaid programs among states. - Article

Cited in Scopus: 17Health care reform has increased demand for pediatric health care quality evaluations, particularly those that assess the impact of care on patient and population health outcomes. Many of today's most common childhood conditions are characterized by symptoms, behaviors, and functional limitations that are best assessed as patient reported outcomes (PROs). Although they remain greatly underutilized, PROs have the potential to improve pediatric health care quality assessment at the point of care and through system-level performance evaluations. - Article

Cited in Scopus: 2It has been a tremendous honor to serve as President of the Academic Pediatric Association (APA) for the past year. As President, I have seen the breadth and depth of the work of our members in a variety of venues, and have come to better understand the many ways in which APA members live their academic lives. There is no “typical” APA member; we take a myriad of paths in our quest to serve the needs of children. Wherever I went, however, I heard a common theme voiced by all of our members: pediatric practice, teaching, and research do not fully benefit children unless we incorporate what we do into the policies of the systems in which children live. - Contents list

Academic PediatricsVol. 13Issue 5p390–399Published in issue: September, 2013- Paul S. Carbone
Cited in Scopus: 22Autism spectrum disorders (ASD), once thought rare, are now commonly encountered in clinical practice. Academic pediatricians may be expected to teach medical students and pediatric residents about ASD, but most likely received limited exposure to ASD during their training. In recent years, research that informs the clinical guidance provided to pediatricians regarding surveillance, screening, and ongoing management of children with ASD has accelerated. By 24 months of age, children with ASD exhibit delays across multiple domains of development, yet the diagnosis is frequently made much later. - Medical Home Challenge
