Children and Youth with Special Health Care Needs Program Provider Manual


CYSHCN Program Philosophy

The Program philosophy is to provide for the early identification and integration of resources for all eligible children and youth who have a special health care need. Early identification and integration of resources will enhance the best possible health outcomes with the greatest degree of independence within the community.

The Program respects the dignity of each individual and their family, and partners with the participants/families to achieve coordinated, ongoing, comprehensive care within a medical home which will provide for successful transitions into adulthood.
