This study evaluates the influence of comprehensive health care coordination for children with special health care needs (CSHCN) in a resident continuity clinic. CSHCN patients were identified from 2 resident continuity panels. Patients were eligible with a score of 2 or greater on the CSHCN screener. Interventions included extended appointment times, a binder, and direct phone access to the social worker who facilitated follow-up appointment scheduling. Data measured included completed and no-show visits for primary care and subspecialty appointments, hospitalization and emergency department visits, use of binders, and parent satisfaction surveys. Patients with a baseline CSHCN screener score ≥4 were 15.6 times more likely to keep their appointment after enrollment ( P = .0035). Mental health no-show visits decreased significantly ( P < .0001). The utilization of components of comprehensive team-based care coordination, even with limited resources, can improve the delivery of health care for children with complex medical needs and mental health disorders in a resident-based clinic.

Research has demonstrated that caring for children with special health care needs (SHCN) affects parental health and well-being. The current study examines effects of community resources on physical and mental health of mothers and fathers caring for a child with SHCN. Analysis of the 2016 National Survey of Children’s Health found that fathers rated their physical and mental health higher than mothers. Greater neighborhood safety and fewer days missed school were significant community resources for both mothers’ and fathers’ physical and mental health. Health care resources were only significant predictors for mothers’ health but not for fathers’. The analysis found significant moderating relationships between days missed school and child symptomology and days missed school and maternal employment on mothers’ mental health. The importance of economic security and community resources for parental health when caring for a child with special health care needs is discussed, and practice and policy implications are developed.
