AB  - The  transition  process  and  appropriate  transfer  of  care  are  particularly  important  for  children  with  complex  medical  care  needs.  The  American  Academy  of  Pediatrics,  American  Academy  of  Family  Physicians,  and  American  College  of  Physicians-American  Society  of  Internal  Medicine  highlighted  this  in  their  original  consensus  statement  on  healthcare  transitions  for  young  adults  with  special  healthcare  needs,  published  in  Pediatrics  in  2002,  which  stated  the  goal  of  transition  as  “maximiz[ing]  lifelong  functioning  and  potential  through  the  provision  of  high-quality,  developmentally  appropriate  health  care  services  that  continue  uninterrupted  as  the  individual  moves  from  adolescence  to  adulthood.”  Cooperation  between  various  healthcare  practitioners  in  the  pediatric  and  adult  spheres  is  needed  to  accomplish  the  goal  of  healthcare  transition  in  a  way  that  is  family-centered,  compassionate,  coordinated,  and  comprehensive.
