A profile of care coordination, missed school days, and unmet needs among Oregon children with special health care needs with behavioral and mental health conditions.
In order to inform Oregon's Title V needs assessment activities, researchers sought to characterize the state's subpopulation of children with special health care needs (CSHCN) with behavioral and mental health conditions (B/MHC) and to determine associations of care coordination with missed school days and unmet needs for this subpopulation. They found that among Oregon CSHCN with B/MHC, 48.9% missed 4 or more school days, 25% had one or more unmet health services need, and 14.8% had one or more unmet family support services need. They concluded that their approach to identify Oregon CSHCN with B/MHC may be adopted by other states endeavoring to improve health for this vulnerable subpopulation.
