What is a Medical Home?What is a Medical Home?

A. A long-term care facility

B. A physician providing care out of his/her home

C. A physician making house calls

D. A concept or model of care provision

A Medical Home Is…NOT just a building or place but a way of providing

health care services that are:

• Accessible • Family-centered• Coordinated• Comprehensive• Continuous• Compassionate • Culturally Sensitive

In a Medical Home…• Children and their families receive the

care that they need from a pediatrician or other PCP whom they know and trust.

• The pediatric health care professionals and parents act as partners to identify and access all the medical and non- medical services needed to help children and their families achieve their maximum potential.

While all children can benefit from a medical home, it is particularly important for children with special health care needs and their families.

Children with Special Health Care Needs

“Children who have or are at increased risk for a chronic physical, developmental, behavioral, or emotional condition and who also require health and related services of a type or amount beyond that required by children generally.”

Adopted by the AAP (October 1998). McPherson M, Arango P, Fox HB, A new definition of children with special health care needs. Pediatrics 1998; 102:137-140
