Pediatric primary health care (PPHC) is of principal importance to the health and development of all children, helping them reach their true potential. Pediatricians, as the clinicians most intensively trained and experienced in child health, are the natural leaders of PPHC within the context of the medical home. Given the rapidly evolving models of pediatric health care delivery, including the explosion of telehealth in the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, pediatricians, together with their representative national organizations such as the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP), are the most capable clinicians to guide policy innovations on both the local and national stage.
儿科初级卫生保健（PPHC）对所有儿童的健康和发展至关重要，有助于他们发挥自身的真正潜力。儿科医生作为在儿童健康方面接受过最深入和最有经验培训的临床医生，是医疗之家背景下 PPHC 的自然领导者。鉴于儿科医疗服务提供模式的迅速发展，包括在 COVID-19 大流行之后远程医疗的爆发，儿科医生及其代表组织，如美国儿科学会（AAP），是最有能力在地方和国家层面指导政策创新的临床医生。
