Welcome    

Partnership for Child Health is a coalition of pediatricians and child health organizations committed to improving the health and wellbeing of children in Northeast Florida. Partnership for Child Health is the d.b.a. ("doing business as") name for Managed Access to Child Health, Inc., a nonprofit organization formed in 1993 as the Primary Care Program for the Jacksonville area Children’s Medical Services (CMS) office. The Partnership has expanded its reach to engage the expertise and dedication of the entire child health community to improve systems of care for all children.

Our vision is a community in which all children and youth have access to the highest quality of comprehensive health care, and maintain a state of optimal health and development into adulthood.

In pursuit of this vision, the Partnership ...

... collaborates with Children’s Medical Services to expand access to high quality primary care and case management services to children with special health care needs;

... works with pediatricians and institutions to educate physicians and ensure they have the resources required to provide comprehensive care using the medical home model;

… collaborates with the community on initiatives to address gaps in health services for all children;

... supports efforts to affect public policy through child advocacy; and

... participates in research and the generation and dissemination of new knowledge related to child health.
