Pediatric Care Network with Children’s Hospital Colorado
The Pediatric Care Network with Children’s Hospital Colorado helps improve children’s lives with high-quality, coordinated care. This network is a community-driven, highly innovative model that is actively reforming care for kids.
Pediatric Care Network: Leading the Transformation of Children's Healthcare
As a clinically integrated network (CIN), the Pediatric Care Network is a partnership between independent pediatric healthcare providers and Children’s Colorado to improve clinical outcomes while minimizing costs. We establish care guidelines and best practices to help providers deliver the best possible care for children.
Created by physicians and Children’s Colorado in 2017, the PCN helps pediatric healthcare providers prepare and provide leadership for the future of healthcare by establishing pediatric care guidelines, best practices and utilizing data and analytics to evaluate and improve outcomes.
Our network is integrated with Children’s Colorado, recognized as one of the top 10 pediatric hospitals in the country, according to U.S. News & World Report. We are also ranked as the number one children’s hospital in Colorado and the mountain region. Together, we are preparing for a shift in healthcare from volume to value-based care, with a focus on population health.
