2021 Pediatric/Adult Health Care Transfer of Care Quality Improvement Initiative

  • 14 Sep 2021

With funding from the Rhode Island Department of Health and Tufts Health Plan, 5 teams of pediatric and adult practices who are  participating in the CTC-RI/PCMH Kids 2021 Pediatric/Adult Health Care Transfer of Care Quality Improvement Initiative  shared their successes, challenges and plans  at the September Best Practice Sharing Meeting. Content experts from the National Alliance to Advance Adolescent Health provided technical assistance, answered questions and provided recommendations for the practice teams. Adult and pediatric practices are working with each other to apply “tests of change” on selected core elements from the Got Transitions tool kits and making improvements as needed to successfully prepare youth for transition of care from pediatric to adult care.
