In 2018, suicide became the second leading cause of death in children ages 10-14 years. Preventative care is freely provided by most medical insurance plans and recommended by state and professional organizations, but barriers prevent care access and early intervention, resulting in long-term consequences. To promote early identification and intervention, evaluation with validated mental health screening tools should be completed according to clinical guidelines at each wellness visit or visit for a mental health concern. Payers must sufficiently reimburse NPs, PCPs, and healthcare systems for screening tools used during all wellness visits, focused mental health visits, and follow-up care. Health policy change and legislative and NP support are essential to provide vital services for youth mental healthcare.</p>","PeriodicalId":50094,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Pediatric Health Care","volume":" ","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":2.5,"publicationDate":"2025-01-29","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"143076145","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
