As of January 2020, CCOs have a new set of incentive measures, two of which are designed to support kindergarten readiness:
- Well-child visits for 3–6-year-olds; and
- Preventive dental visits for ages 1–5.
Recent opportunities
Family-centered resources to support well-child visits
In spring 2021, the OHA Transformation Center partnered with Insight for Action to conduct an environmental scan to identify resources for parents of young children (ages 3-6) to promote their children’s wellness. This scan aligns with the OHA CCO incentive metric focused on kindergarten readiness, which emphasizes the importance of well-child visits for 3-6-year-old children in improving school readiness. Tab 2 in this workbook ("Family-Centered Resources") contains a curated list of 67 free, easily digestible and family-centered resources intended to be shared with parents and families of young children. See tab 1 for instructions for using the built-in filters to navigate the resources.
