Dear Partners,
We believe that pediatric quality of care should be a top priority for policymakers. At our Children's Health Care Summit in April, we promised you a set of materials to help you learn more about pediatric quality and to support your efforts to promote this important policy topic. We hope that you will actively use this toolkit of resources, tailoring documents to fit your specific needs (see below for a list of the toolkit's materials).
We have created a new pediatric quality webpage to house all of these materials. The webpage also includes NEACH's Pediatric Quality of Care Matrix, our Menu of pediatric quality policy options to share with policymakers, publications and reports, pediatric quality news, and links to other organizations devoted to advancing pediatric quality of care efforts. Click here to view this webpage.
Quality of Care Toolkit:
- Children's Health Quality Fact Sheet
- Sample Letter to State Senator or Representative
- Sample Letter to Member of Congress
- Sample Letter to Editor: State Issue
- Sample Letter to Editor: National Health Reform
- Sample Op-Ed: National Health Reform
- Sample Op-Ed: State Focus
We hope that you will use these pediatric quality documents in your children's health care advocacy work. Please let us know if we can assist you in your efforts to customize and circulate materials. As always, please feel free to contact me (617-275-2929, arosenthal@communitycatalyst.org) directly with any questions.
Sincerely,
Amy Rosenthal
Project Director
