The evaluation of reproductive, maternal, newborn, and child health (RMNCH) by the Disease Control Priorities, Third Edition (DCP3) focuses on maternal conditions, childhood illness, and malnutrition. Specifically, the chapters address acute illness and undernutrition in children, principally under age 5. It also covers maternal mortality, morbidity, stillbirth, and influences to pregnancy and pre-pregnancy. Volume 3 focuses on developments since the publication of DCP2 and will also include the transition to older childhood, in particular, the overlap and commonality with the child development volume. The DCP3 evaluation of these conditions produced three key findings: 1. There is significant difficulty in measuring the burden of key conditions such as unintended pregnancy, unsafe abortion, nonsexually transmitted infections, infertility, and violence against women. 2. Investments in the continuum of care can have significant returns for improved and equitable access, health, poverty, and health systems. 3. There is a large difference in how RMNCH conditions affect different income groups; investments in RMNCH can lessen the disparity in terms of both health and financial risk.

America's health care system is being reshaped by a variety of market-driven changes, and states are emerging as the major governmental influence on health care policy. Amid these changes, the health and well-being of children can slip from view. Although most children are fundamentally healthy, they require health care that emphasizes preventive services, such as immunizations and regular monitoring of physical and psychosocial growth and development. This volume takes a broad look at access and quality of care for pregnant women, children, and mothers. Among the issues addressed are the scope of benefits available under various health care reform efforts and services for special-needs children under managed care.

Children are the foundation of the United States, and supporting them is a key component of building a successful future. However, millions of children face health inequities that compromise their development, well-being, and long-term outcomes, despite substantial scientific evidence about how those adversities contribute to poor health. Advancements in neurobiological and socio-behavioral science show that critical biological systems develop in the prenatal through early childhood periods, and neurobiological development is extremely responsive to environmental influences during these stages. Consequently, social, economic, cultural, and environmental factors significantly affect a child's health ecosystem and ability to thrive throughout adulthood. Vibrant and Healthy Kids: Aligning Science, Practice, and Policy to Advance Health Equity builds upon and updates research from Communities in Action: Pathways to Health Equity (2017) and From Neurons to Neighborhoods: The Science of Early Childhood Development (2000). This report provides a brief overview of stressors that affect childhood development and health, a framework for applying current brain and development science to the real world, a roadmap for implementing tailored interventions, and recommendations about improving systems to better align with our understanding of the significant impact of health equity.

America's Children is a comprehensive, easy-to-read analysis of the relationship between health insurance and access to care. The book addresses three broad questions: How is children's health care currently financed? Does insurance equal access to care? How should the nation address the health needs of this vulnerable population? America's Children explores the changing role of Medicaid under managed care; state-initiated and private sector children's insurance programs; specific effects of insurance status on the care children receive; and the impact of chronic medical conditions and special health care needs. It also examines the status of "safety net" health providers, including community health centers, children's hospitals, school-based health centers, and others and reviews the changing patterns of coverage and tax policy options to increase coverage of private-sector, employer-based health insurance. In response to growing public concerns about uninsured children, last year Congress voted to provide $24 billion over five years for new state insurance initiatives. This volume will serve as a primer for concerned federal policymakers and regulators, state agency officials, health plan decisionmakers, health care providers, children's health advocates, and researchers.

The delivery of high quality and equitable care for both mothers and newborns is complex and requires efforts across many sectors. The United States spends more on childbirth than any other country in the world, yet outcomes are worse than other high-resource countries, and even worse for Black and Native American women. There are a variety of factors that influence childbirth, including social determinants such as income, educational levels, access to care, financing, transportation, structural racism and geographic variability in birth settings. It is important to reevaluate the United States' approach to maternal and newborn care through the lens of these factors across multiple disciplines. Birth Settings in America: Outcomes, Quality, Access, and Choice reviews and evaluates maternal and newborn care in the United States, the epidemiology of social and clinical risks in pregnancy and childbirth, birth settings research, and access to and choice of birth settings.

While much progress has been made on achieving the Millenium Development Goals over the last decade, the number and complexity of global health challenges has persisted. Growing forces for globalization have increased the interconnectedness of the world and our interdependency on other countries, economies, and cultures. Monumental growth in international travel and trade have brought improved access to goods and services for many, but also carry ongoing and ever-present threats of zoonotic spillover and infectious disease outbreaks that threaten all. Global Health and the Future Role of the United States identifies global health priorities in light of current and emerging world threats. This report assesses the current global health landscape and how challenges, actions, and players have evolved over the last decade across a wide range of issues, and provides recommendations on how to increase responsiveness, coordination, and efficiency â€" both within the U.S. government and across the global health field.

This report presents findings of a George Washington University Center for Health Policy Research (CHPR) multi-year project to conduct analytical studies on the financing, delivery, and cost effectiveness of child health supervision services. Against a backdrop of decline in private sector coverage for children, a growing number of children living in poverty, and major health care reform efforts, the goal of the CHPR project was to identify and examine health systems problems in three major areas: access and financing, organization and delivery, and cost and effectiveness. The resulting studies are presented as follows: (1) "An Overview of Health Insurance Coverage and Access to Child Health Supervision Services" (Michele R. Solloway); (2) "Private Health Insurance Coverage of Preventive Benefits for Children" (Margaret A. McManus and Karen Hertz); (3) "A 20-Year Retrospective of Child Health Supervision" (Jerome A. Paulson and Michelle R. Solloway); (4) "Ensuring Adequate Health Care Benefits for Children and Adolescents" (Peter P. Budetti and Claire Feinson); (5) "Informing State Medicaid Providers about EPSDT [Early and Periodic Screening, Diagnostic and Treatment Program] (Michele R. Solloway and Others); (6) "Barriers to Full Participation in EPSDT and Possible Strategies for the Maternal and Child Health Bureau" (Michele R. Solloway); (7) "Medical Managed Care: A Briefing Book on Issues for Children and Adolescents) Harriette B. Fox and Margaret A. McManus); (8) "State Implementation of OBRA '89 EPSDT Amendments within Medicaid Managed Care Arrangements" (Hariette B. Fox and Lori Wicks); (9) "Population and Selective (High Risk) Approaches to Prevention in Well-Child Care" (Barbara Starfield and Patrick Vivier); (10) "Estimating Costs and Savings from Preventive Child Health Proposals" (Donald N. Muse); (11) "The Role of Outcomes, Effectiveness, and Cost-Effectiveness Research in Child Health Supervision" (Peter P. Budetti and others); (12) "Cross-National Comparisons of Well-Child Supervision" (Barbara Starfield and Jennifer Harlow); (13) "Environmental Health and Child Health Supervision: A Case Study of Childhood Lead Poisoning" (Bradley R. Pine and others); (14) "Pediatric Oral Health" (Arthur Nowak and others); (15) "Adolescent Preventive Mental Health Services" (Anne L. Ducey and Michelle R. Solloway); and (16) "Health Supervision and School Health Services for Children" (Michelle R. Solloway and others). Many of the studies include tables and appendices. (HTH)
