Scope of Health Care Benefits for Newborns, Infants, Children,
Adolescents, and Young Adults Through Age 21 Years
The optimal health of children can best be achieved by providing access to comprehensive health care benefits. This policy statement replaces the 1993 statement, "Scope of Health Care Benefits for Infants, Children, and Adolescents Through Age 21 Years." Changes involve services and procedures specific to the delivery of comprehensive preventive, prenatal, postnatal, and mental health care. These services should be delivered by appropriately trained and board-eligible/certified pediatric providers, including primary care pediatricians, pediatric medical subspecialists, and pediatric surgical specialists.
The following policy statement is a revision:
