The American Academy of Pediatrics views retail-based clinics (RBCs) as an inappropriate source of primary care for pediatric patients, as they fragment medical care and are detrimental to the medical home concept of longitudinal and coordinated care. This statement updates the original 2006 American Academy of Pediatrics statement on RBCs, which flatly opposed these sites as appropriate for pediatric care, discussing the shift in RBC focus and comparing attributes of RBCs with those of the pediatric medical home.
美国儿科学会认为,零售医疗诊所(RBC)不适合为儿科患者提供初级保健,因为它们割裂了医疗服务,不利于医疗之家理念所强调的纵向和协调护理。本声明更新了美国儿科学会 2006 年关于 RBC 的原始声明,该声明曾断然反对这些场所适合儿科护理,并讨论了 RBC 重点的转变,以及 RBC 属性与儿科医疗之家属性的比较。
