Justification: The Enhancing Systems of Care for Children with Medical Complexity Coordinating Center provides national leadership through training, support, and education to five demonstration projects implementing patient/family centered models of care delivery. Additional funding is needed to create consistent and sustainable policies, strategies, and partnerships that every state can adapt when providing access to a patient and family centered health care home for all CMC and their families. Most CMC do not have access to high quality patient-centered care focused on their complex care needs and one key reason is lack of sustainable financing of these care models. As a result of this supplemental funding, (1) more states will receive training, education and resources to provide stable and sufficient financing for patient and family centered health care homes for all CMC; (2) common measures will be developed for use across federal programs; and (3) state and jurisdictional Title V programs will be better positioned to work with state Medicaid agencies regarding the needs of the maternal and child health population, especially children and youth with special health care needs/CMC. Because of the current grantee's work in Medicaid financing, implementation science, and the CMC population, they are best positioned to work with state Title V and Medicaid programs, as well as families, clinicians, health care organizations, and other stakeholders, to support state Medicaid and Title V agencies in their efforts.
HRSA will award $450,000 to the award recipient noted in Table I.
