Abstract

Research studies presented at the annual Pediatric Academic Societies meeting provide continued evidence of the impact of the environment on child health, the prevalence of mental health problems in children and adolescents, and the benefits of comprehensive health care coverage. Other studies report on the efficacy of new formats for delivering pediatric health care and the content of health supervision visits, and identify potential solutions for existing deficits and disparities in health care delivery. Despite this abundance of positive studies, the United States continues to lag behind many developed countries in its broader adoption of effective strategies such as universal health coverage. Child health care professionals must continue to speak out on behalf of the needs of infants, children, and adolescents and work for systemic change in health care delivery.
