Children make up nearly half of all Medicaid enrollees—37 million nationwide—yet their unique needs are too often overlooked in value-based care models. In this episode, Michael sits down with Taylor Beery, Chief Innovation & Administrative Officer and Co-Founder at Imagine Pediatrics, to explore why pediatric value-based care requires its own distinct strategy. From addressing the needs of 14.5 million children with special health care needs to building trust with families and caregivers, Taylor makes the case that centering children in healthcare reform not only improves outcomes for vulnerable populations but also strengthens the foundation for broader Medicaid and commercial models.
