New Resource for Pediatric to Adult Health Care Transition

Thoughtful perspective from my colleague Thomas J. Kayal II, MHA in Becker’s Hospital Review on the growing role of private equity in pediatrics. At Connecticut Children's, our mission-driven focus requires us to be thoughtful stewards of both care and capital as the landscape evolves. The increasing interest of private equity in pediatric services for urgent care, behavioral health, and beyond, underscores the need for vigilance and a proactive strategy. Our responsibility is to ensure that #access, #equity, and #quality remain at the heart of care for children, even as new capital and models enter the field.

At Zarminali Pediatrics, we don’t just talk about improving pediatric care—we listen. We asked parents across the country to share their experiences navigating their kids’ medical care, and the response was clear: Parents want better communication, seamless coordination, more accessible care, and more clarity from their child’s clinicians. Here’s a deeper look: ▪️ 95% of parents want to be able to contact their clinician outside of business hours ▪️ 52% of parents have missed or postponed a pediatric visit due to limited clinician availability  ▪️ 48% of parents have left an appointment feeling confused about the next step for their child and family  ▪️ 79% of parents have had to repeatedly share their child’s medical history due to a lack of coordination across care providers In a time when our children’s health is under more pressure than ever, these findings offer critical insight into what needs to change and how we can use technology to improve experiences. Zarminali has a bold vision for the path forward: more connected, more coordinated, and modernized multispecialty care. To learn more on how today’s parents feel about navigating the current pediatric health system, and how we’re building an experience that fits families’ needs nationwide, check out: https://lnkd.in/g4d49fGQ

We founded Zarminali Pediatrics with a singular mission: to build a seamless, technology-enhanced, and truly family-centered pediatric care model at scale. Not only because I believe there can be a better way, but because I believe there must be. We conducted a national survey of parents which shows that the challenges I've experienced are widespread. It's clear there's still a long way to go in making it easier for parents to navigate the disjointed pediatric care landscape. The vision of a better way continues to drive us. It’s one of the many reasons I’m excited to have leaders like Amanda Furr, MD, our chief medical officer, and Syed Hassan, our new chief technology officer, to advance the Zarminali mission. We’ve built a company that’s united in creating a tech-enabled care experience that’s easier for parents and clinicians alike and better for our children’s health journeys. https://lnkd.in/gHQdZNVj
