Activity description
This activity consists of recorded presentations from the "27th Annual National Conference" held Oct. 15–17, 2018, in Minneapolis, Minn.
The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) developed the medical home for children with special health care needs and developmental disabilities and their families as an approach to providing comprehensive primary care that is accessible, continuous, comprehensive, family-centered, coordinated, compassionate, and culturally effective to every child and adolescent. With a focus on children with special health care needs, this presentation will review the history of the medical home and the incorporation of an interdisciplinary team that includes patients and their families, primary care physicians, specialists and subspecialists, hospitals, and the community to address preventive, acute, and chronic care from birth to transition to adulthood.
