I recently had the opportunity to help put together a web video for The Commonwealth Fund on their “2011 State Scorecard on Child Health System Performance.” According to the report:
“The State Scorecard on Child Health System Performance, 2011, examines states’ performance on 20 key indicators of children’s health care access, affordability of care, prevention and treatment, the potential to lead healthy lives, and health system equity. The analysis finds wide variation in performance across states. If all states achieved benchmark performance levels, 5 million more children would be insured, 10 million more would receive at least one medical and dental preventive care visit annually, and nearly 9 million more would have a medical home.”
The video I put together features, “Scorecard authors Cathy Schoen and Ed Schor discuss how lower-performing states can learn from the best states and meet achievable benchmarks.”
