Abstract

PURPOSE: The purpose was to evaluate an ambulatory care coordination program for children with complex care needs. DESIGN AND METHODS: A pre- and postcohort evaluation design was implemented to analyze the impact on hospital utilization.
RESULTS: Results included a decrease in emergency department presentations (15%, p < .001), hospital admissions (9%, p < .019), and hospital bed days (43%, p < .001). Economic analysis indicated a cost savings of $A 1.9 million per annum. PRACTICE IMPLICATIONS: Hospital utilization is significantly reduced for children with complex care needs through 24/7 care coordination.
