Measure Definition
The percentage of children who had an increase in functional activity is related to the Pediatric Neuro-Rehabilitation Fund. This is calculated from data collected from provider assessments as reported to DHHS Division of Population Health Office of Health Promotion and Prevention, Violence and Injury Prevention Program.
This data is directly from the provider and is measured through use of a couple of outcome measure assessments used in rehabilitation.
National Data: The Pediatric Neuro-Rehabilitation fund is a state run program and there is not a national average available for this type of program.
Story Behind the Curve
