Innovative methods for parents and clinics to create tools for kids' care (IMPACCT Kids' Care) study protocol

摘要

Background: Despite expansions in public health insurance, many children remain uninsured or experience gaps in coverage. Community health centers (CHCs) provide primary care to many children at risk for uninsurance and are well-positioned to help families obtain and retain children's coverage. Recent advances in health information technology (HIT) capabilities provide the means to create tools that could enhance CHCs' insurance outreach efforts.
