Abstract: Children in immigrant families are less likely to screen positive with the Children with Special Health Care Needs Screener (CSHCN-S). This may indicate that children in immigrant families are healthier or require fewer health services than non-immigrant peers. Alternatively, the screener may under-identify special healthcare needs in this population.

“…Dessa forma, torna-se possível avaliar as condições de acesso à rede de serviços, planejar a oferta de atendimentos e ampliar a cobertura e resolutividade das demandas apresentadas por esse grupo populacional. [3][4][5][6] O CSHCN Screener® vem sendo aplicado em estudos de prevalência, desde 2001, nos EUA. Ao invés de centrar-se no diagnóstico da doença, esse instrumento estabelece um conjunto de necessidades de saúde que são especializadas e específicas.…”
