Early Childhood
Addressing early childhood development is key to having a healthy adult population. Medicaid covers nearly half of all children in the U.S. ages 0-5, putting it in a unique position to improve future population health. CHCS works with stakeholders to support anti-racist and family-driven strategies to transform child health services with a focus on measurement and payment strategies to sustain improvements in care delivery.
