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

  • 07 Dec 2021

The 5 pediatric and adult dyad practice teams, participating in the RIDOH/CTC-RI/PCMH Kids 2021 Pediatric/Adult Health Care Transfer of Care QI Initiative, shared their progress and challenges at the December Best Practice Sharing Meeting. National Alliance to Advance Adolescent Health content experts continue to provide guidance and expertise on this initiative, and addressed questions and challenges raised at the meeting. In the next 4-5 months, the practices will complete their transition activities with the selected young adults and receive their feedback on the process. In addition, the program is developing a plan to identify costs associated with the transfer of care work to help inform the RI transfer of care cost & sustainability efforts. Special thanks are extended to Tufts Health Plan who has provided funding to support this important work.
