What Policies Can Enhance Access to Pediatric Care?
Several policies can improve access to pediatric care:
1. Expanding Medicaid and CHIP: Increasing coverage eligibility can help more families access healthcare services. 2. Subsidizing Healthcare Costs: Financial assistance for low-income families can reduce out-of-pocket expenses. 3. Incentivizing Healthcare Providers: Offering incentives for providers to practice in underserved areas can increase the availability of pediatric care.
