ABSTRACT
The StateScorecardonChildHealthSystemPerformance, 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 healthsystem 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 findings demonstrate that federal and state
policy actions maintained and, in some cases, expanded children’s insurance
coverage during the recent recession, even as many parents lost coverage. The
report also highlights the need for initiatives specifically focused on improving
health system performance for children. The report includes state-by-state
insurance coverage projections for children once relevant provisions of the
Affordable Health Act are implemented.
