DISTRICT MEDICAL GROUP INC

The children's rehabilitative services (crs) program started in 1929 to provide medical services to children who have some of the most serious health conditions and who are enrolled in the arizona health care cost containment system (medicaid). The program in total serves over 20,000 members statewide with the dmg location serving approximately 14,000 children, including telemedicine visits and field clinics serving the outlying communities. The crs multi-specialty interdisciplinary clinic (msic) was designed to uniquely meet the health care requirements of special needs children by offering nearly all specialty, primary care, and behavioral health services in one building. The dmg crs clinic provides a full spectrum of pediatric specialty care where physicians, therapists, nutritionists, child life specialists, social workers and a host of others can all work together providing vital medical care, behavioral health care and support services under one roof and on one floor in a space specifically designed for this purpose. Using a single electronic medical record, the dmg crs clinic improves efficiency and communication between the health care providers, with the goal of improving care while better managing costs.
