Abstract

Because we have a large population of exceptional family members, in November 1990 our pediatric department developed a comprehensive interdisciplinary team to manage these complicated cases. The goals of this team were similar to those defined by the 1985 USAF Exceptional Family Member Program, Regulation 160-38. We describe the organization, membership, and categories of patients served, and benefits of this form of comprehensive care including identifying and coordinating supportive community services. By reporting our experience, we hope other military medical centers will benefit from this interdisciplinary approach.
