OBJECTIVES: We assessed how shared plans of care (SPoC), a care coordination tool, impact healthcare utilization of a cohort of children with special healthcare needs (CSHCN) and mental health conditions. METHODS: Data, including emergency department (ED) visits, hospitalizations, and primary care visits, were collected through chart review of CSHCN. A Poisson generalized linear mixed model was used to analyze healthcare utilization data for CSHCN. RESULTS: Our results showed a decrease in primary care visits, hospitalizations, and ED visits for CSHCN after SPoC implementation, though only primary care visits reached significance. Mental health care visits were specifically found to decrease by 39% following employment of SPoC. CONCLUSIONS FOR PRACTICE: The use of SPoCs in CSHCN had a positive impact on healthcare utilization suggesting widespread use of this tool improved care coordination in this population.
This grey literature reference is included in the Academy's Literature Collection in keeping with our mission to gather all sources of information on integration. Grey literature is comprised of materials that are not made available through traditional publishing avenues. Often, the information from unpublished resources can be limited and the risk of bias cannot be determined.
