Assessing and Spreading Novel Models of Care 

Assessing and Spreading Novel Models of Care 

Identify and elevate innovative models that strengthen the primary–specialty interface and improve timely access to care. 

Key components include: 

• Cataloguing models across pediatric departments 

• Organizing innovations around common workforce and access challenges 

• Producing video summaries and case examples to raise awareness and support replication 

The workgroup is curating a growing collection of brief, abstract-style videos that showcase novel models of care at the interface of primary and specialty pediatrics. These concise (<5 minute) videos are designed to spark ideas and elevate innovation across other institutions – not as “how-to” guides, but as snapshots of creative approaches addressing shared challenges in access, workforce capacity, and care delivery across diverse settings.

Together, these videos aim to build a national library of innovation – highlighting how departments are rethinking traditional boundaries, strengthening collaboration, and advancing care for children and families. Each video includes a short overview of the model, the problem it seeks to address, and – where available – additional resources and a point of contact to facilitate connection and shared learning.
