Problem Statement:» The 2001 Current Population Survey revealed that 9.1 million US
children less than 19 years of age—or 11.8% of the 76,616,883 total child population—do not have health insurance (This number is increasing with our current economic down turn).
» Uninsured children are less likely to receive preventive care, are less likely to use needed health care services, and are more vulnerable to health problems.
» This is alarming, because it is well documented that availability of, and access to, quality health care has a direct impact on the health of families and children.

The mission of CATCH is to support pediatricians who work with communities to assure that all children have medical homes and have access to any other needed health care services.
The CATCH Mission
![Page 12: Problem Statement:](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081504/56814bf9550346895db8ef08/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The CATCH mission is built upon several key concepts
The medical home, more commonly defined as the point of access to all needed health services
Local people can solve local problems using local resources
Communities have both assets and needs
![Page 13: Problem Statement:](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081504/56814bf9550346895db8ef08/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Communities are different and will often approach similar problems in different ways.
Pediatricians can make a difference in their communities.
Experiences and successes can be shared. We need to help and support each other.
The CATCH mission is built upon several key concepts
![Page 14: Problem Statement:](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022081504/56814bf9550346895db8ef08/html5/thumbnails/14.jpg)
This is done by:
providing pediatricians with tools and resources needed to put ideas into action (TA).
providing them with support and model programs (networking, peer support, VP, CQ).
motivating pediatricians with fiscal support (funding opportunities).
getting pediatricians involved with their communities.
