Proposed Project: Assessment of Factors Influencing the Adequacy of
Health Care Services to Children in Foster Care and Other Out-of-
Home Placements--New
The Maternal and Child Health Bureau of HRSA is planning to conduct
a survey of health care services for children in foster care and other
out-of-home care settings in the United States. This project is aimed
at identifying the contributing factors affecting the delivery of
health care services to these children. A survey will be conducted of
Child Welfare, Child Health/MCH, Medicaid and Mental Health agencies in
all 50 states, the District of Columbia, and five counties in each of
11 states with county-administered child welfare systems. An additional
10 counties will be surveyed to include the counties with the largest
population, bringing the total sample to 65 counties. This survey will
obtain information describing the range of health service delivery
arrangements currently provided, obtain a comprehensive assessment of
the organization and delivery of services, and collect data on what
different jurisdictions are doing to improve the delivery of health
services to this population.
Estimates of the annualized reporting burden are as follows:
