Association Between Parental Barriers to Accessing a Usual Source of Care and Children's Receipt of Preventive Services.

CONCLUSIONS: Parents' attitudes and beliefs about having a usual source of care were strongly associated with their children's receipt of recommended preventive health services. Rates of receipt of child preventive services may be improved by addressing parents' attitudes and beliefs about having a usual source of care. Future studies should assess causes of these associations. PMID: 28358997 [PubMed - as supplied by publisher]
