Abstract

Parent reports on family experiences of care can provide health plans, systems and providers with crucial information on their performance in the domain of family-centeredness. The Maine Department of Health and Human Services (DHHS) conducts an annual survey to gather this kind of information for MaineCare, the state of Maine’s Medicaid and Child Health Insurance (CHIP) program.
