Program Goals
Improve the health of NC children with complex chronic illnesses through improved value of care.
Engage primary care providers and pediatric subspecialists across the state to share responsibility and accountability for pediatric primary, subspecialty, and hospital care.
Jointly develop and utilize evidence based guidelines of care for pediatric chronic illnesses with pediatric subspecialists and primary care physicians and actively engage in co-management of these children.
Provide active care management to children under the care of pediatric subspecialists through embedded care managers and patient coordinators at tertiary hospitals and provide a warm hand off to CCNC network care managers.

4% of Children
Need continuous care by pediatric subspecialists
Should have care plans/passports developed by their subspecialist teams
Need multiple services at the community level
Need 24/7 access to a physician who has access to the medical records of the child
Quality of Care for Children with Complex Medical Conditions
Guidelines and care plans/passports developed by subspecialists
Electronic communication involving tertiary center specialists and community based generalists
Regular visits with subspecialists and primary care physicians
Family input/electronic communication with physicians
Community partner collaboration coordinated by the community-based medical home
Cost-effectiveness of Care for Children with Complex Conditions
24/7 access to subspecialist and generalist physicians
Avoid unnecessary expensive medications and therapies
Avoid unnecessary hospital emergency department visits
Avoid unnecessary hospital admissions
Shortage of Pediatric Subspecialists
Complex children need a lot of time from their pediatric subspecialists
NC has shortages of most categories of pediatric subspecialists
If these subspecialists are to maximize their time with complex children, general pediatricians must do their part to minimize unnecessary referrals to subspecialists
