The pediatric medical home is a model to provide quality health care to a child that is coordinated and overseen by a team of professionals who are grounded in family-centered practice (Cleveland Clinic, 2012^; Munoz, Nelson, Bradham, Hoffman, & Houston, 2011). The medical home can be a centralized, consolidated, and comprehensive approach to address concerns for a child and can bolster the early intervention goals of Early Hearing Detection and Intervention ([EHDI]; Buchino et al., 2019^; Munoz, Shisler, Moeller, & White, 2009^; Munoz et al., 2011). With early access to screening information for children who are D/deaf or hard of hearing, the medical home plays a role in early diagnostic services and follow-up care that are critical to EHDI. This connection allows for discussion of how the medical home can exist and be supported within the context of existing service provision systems as a potential preemptive intervention to address the needs of children and families. By reviewing publicly accessible materials, the state of Connecticut can be used as a case study to look at various methods of medical home engagement with the outcome of supporting EHDI-based benchmarks (Connecticut Department of Public Health, 2014^,2018). At the same time, a novel means of data collection through the medical home is proposed.

儿科医疗之家是一个为儿童提供优质医疗保健的模型，该模型由一支以家庭为中心的专业人士协调和监督的团队（克利夫兰诊所，2012 ^； Munoz，Nelson，Nelson，Bradham，Hoffman和Houston， 2011）。该医疗之家可以在一个集中，统一，全面的方法来解决忧虑的孩子，可以加强早期干预目标的早期听力检测和干预（[EHDI]; Buchino等，2019 ^;穆尼奥斯，Shisler，默勒， ＆White，2009 ^; Munoz等，2011）。早期获得D /聋或听力障碍儿童的筛查信息，医疗之家在对EHDI至关重要的早期诊断服务和后续护理中发挥着作用。这种联系允许讨论在现有服务提供系统的背景下如何存在和支持医疗之家，这是潜在的先发制人干预措施，可满足儿童和家庭的需求。通过审查可公开获取的材料，康涅狄格州可以用作案例研究，以研究各种支持医疗服务的方法，以支持基于EHDI的基准（康涅狄格州公共卫生部，2014年^， 2018年）。同时，提出了一种通过医疗之家收集数据的新颖方法。
