...Increase Access for Children to Reach Necessary Care

We scale from local networks to regional networks to global networks that provide access to care. We first seek care and support in-country, then in-region, then internationally.

Access to advanced pediatric care does not solely consist of the availability of pediatric physicians and support specialists, but rather relies on the accessibility and availability of care through a shared delivery infrastructure that is the foundation of a functional health system.

World Pediatrics works within the entire health system to understand unique barriers that influence three factors of access to care everywhere World Pediatrics works:

- Delay Seeking Care (pre-hospital)
- Delay Reaching Care (pre-hospital)
- Delay Receiving Care (hospital)

World Pediatrics’ regional models and service delivery address these delays through the strengthening of four components of the health system:

Affordability
Availability
Workforce (Pediatric Advanced Care Workforce)
Infrastructure

...Are Region-Driven & Diversely-Comprised

World Pediatrics’ networks provide the foundation for the regional healthcare delivery model. To provide efficient and effective delivery of care, they are dependent on the strength of regional partnerships and the ability to communicate and collaborate across borders and medical specialties.

...Are Patient-Centric & Data-Driven

1/3 of World Pediatrics patients are treated multiple times, and 1/2 of those are seen for more than one medical specialty.

All patient information is collected and tracked through a custom-designed patient information management platform. This platform updates and monitors patient medical information through age 21 and is accessible to World Pediatrics’ staff, medical volunteers, and regional and international partners.

This system allows World Pediatrics to connect patients with appropriate care and resources worldwide in the least amount of time. It enables a seamless, cross-referral network for all patients requiring multiple specialty care, providing information to assess quality improvement and direct strategic program development
