Most pediatricians coordinate care for children with special health care needs. However, many do not consistently perform key care coordination activities due to limited time and staff.

Area of Science:

  • Pediatrics
  • Health Services Research
  • Child Health

Background:

  • Care coordination is crucial for children with special health care needs.
  • Understanding pediatrician involvement in care coordination is essential.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To determine the frequency of care coordination services provided by pediatricians.
  • To identify barriers pediatricians face in delivering these services.

Main Methods:

  • A survey was distributed to 1632 randomly selected US pediatricians.
  • The questionnaire assessed the provision of specific care coordination activities.

Main Results:

  • 71.2% of pediatricians act as primary care coordinators.
  • Fewer than 25% consistently contact schools or discuss specialist findings with families.

  • Limited time and lack of staff were the primary barriers identified.

    • Conclusions:

    • While many pediatricians perceive themselves as providing care coordination, specific activities are often not consistently performed.
    • Barriers such as time constraints and staffing shortages hinder comprehensive care coordination.
