Enlisting local pharmacists to work with local care managers and physicians to review complex drug regimens and make recommendations to patients.
Improving care for children with special health care needs by developing connections between the subspecialty care location and medical home of the patient; strengthening pediatric subspecialty capacity and improving care coordination through case management; and establishing models of early intervention and best practices of care.
