Twenty-four programs were nominated for providing exemplary care in coordinating services for children with heritable disorders. Individuals representing the programs participated in qualitative telephone interviews. The nominees represented a variety of primary care and specialty practices and community-centered programs. Key themes and strategies emerged from the interviews, several of which crossed settings – details are offered herein. Providing coordinated care is rewarding for the clinic staff and deemed valuable by patients and families, but it is time-consuming and not adequately reimbursed by third-party payers. Developing and maintaining committed staff and financial support are ongoing challenges for the programs interviewed.
