Wall Street Journal: The Informed Patient

"…Increasingly, it is falling to pediatricians and family practitioners to cope with the tide of pediatric mental-health issues; …pediatricians are often ill-prepared to provide such care, and fear they won't be reimbursed… The key is going to be getting pediatricians in general more comfortable with the role of talking to families and children about mental-health issues; parents actually welcome such intervention, and one aim of [the Children's Emotional Health Link] training program is to teach pediatricians to gain the confidence of parents, and encourage follow-up visits for open discussions of family problems which may be affecting their child."
