Significant gaps exist between the quality of health care being delivered and that which could be delivered to the U.S. population. Less is known about pediatric health services than about those for adults. Children with special health care needs (CSHCN) use significantly more health care resources than children without chronic conditions, putting them at higher risk for problems due to variations in health care quality and delivery. Very little health services research is currently supported in the Intermountain West, and virtually no projects are ongoing in children health services research. We propose to develop an infrastructure to generate and support a child health service research program for the Intermountain West. This effort will consist of 3 related activities: 1) Developing the Intermountain Consortium for Child Health Services Research through collaboration among seven organizations with significant resources and commitment to improving health care for children; 2) Implementing a Faculty Development Program to prepare and mentor faculty and others for careers in child health services research; and 3) Conduct a study comparing the impact of a pediatric hospitalist system with traditional care on outcomes for CSHCN admitted to Primary Children's Medical Center. The collaborators include: the Department of Pediatrics and Division of General Pediatrics of the University of Utah; Primary Children's Medical Center; Medicaid and the Bureau of CSHCN of the Utah Department of Health; the Utah Pediatric Practice-Based Research Network; and the Harvard Pediatric Health Services Research Fellowship Program. An integral component is the Child Health Services Research Laboratory, using student research assistants in a model developed by the PI. The long-term goal of the Intermountain Consortium is to establish a successful on-going collaborative child health services research program improving the quality and delivery of health care for all children in our region, with emphasis on CSHCN.

所提供的医疗保健质量与可以向美国人口提供的医疗保健质量之间存在显着差距。人们对儿科健康服务的了解比对成人的了解要少。有特殊卫生保健需要的儿童（CSHCN）比没有慢性病的儿童使用更多的卫生保健资源，由于卫生保健质量和提供的差异，他们面临更高的问题风险。目前，在山间西部，很少有保健服务研究得到支持，几乎没有任何儿童保健服务研究项目正在进行。我们建议开发一个基础设施，以产生和支持Intermountain West的儿童健康服务研究计划。这项工作将包括3项相关活动：1）通过七个拥有大量资源并致力于改善儿童医疗保健的组织之间的合作，发展山间儿童健康服务研究联盟; 2）实施教师发展计划，为教师和其他人的职业生涯做好准备和指导儿童健康服务研究;和3）进行一项研究，比较儿科住院医生系统与传统护理对初级儿童医学中心收治的CSHCN结局的影响。合作者包括：犹他州大学儿科系和普通儿科系;初级儿童医学中心;医疗补助和犹他州卫生部CSHCN局;犹他州儿科实践研究网络;以及哈佛儿科健康服务研究奖学金计划。一个不可分割的组成部分是儿童保健服务研究实验室，在PI开发的模型中使用学生研究助理。Intermountain联盟的长期目标是建立一个成功的持续合作儿童保健服务研究计划，以提高本地区所有儿童的保健质量和提供，重点是CSHCN。
