The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) is a national professional membership organization dedicated to the health, safety and well-being of infants, children, adolescents and young adults. The AAP first developed the concept of the medical home in 1967, and continues to strongly advocate for a medical home for all children. The AAP currently provides a broad range of education and resources related to evidence-based clinical practice guidelines, quality improvement, practice management, payment and financing, HIT, and various clinical topics to help support member practices. The AAP has worked directly with practices through its Chapter Quality Network and its Quality Improvement Innovation Network. In addition, the AAP is working to expand its service offerings related to PCMH, and plans to have additional practice transformation resources available in mid-2011. The AAP also has a Child Health Informatics Center, which provides HIT-related advocacy and education (www.aap.org/chic).
