abstract: 'Parents'' health and children''s health are closely intertwined healthier
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
parents have healthier children, and vice versa. Genetics accounts for
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
some of this relationship, but much of it can be traced to environment
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
and behavior, and the environmental and behavioral risk factors for poor
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
health disproportionately affect families living in poverty. Unhealthy
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
children are likely to become unhealthy adults, and poor health drags
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
down both their educational attainment and their income.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Because of the close connection between parents'' and children''s health,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
write Sherry Glied and Don Oellerich, we have every reason to believe
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
that programs to improve parents'' health will improve their children''s
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
health as well. Yet few programs aim to work this way, except for a
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
narrow category of programs that target pregnant women, newborns, and
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
very young children. Glied and Oellerich assess these programs, discuss
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
why there are so few of them, and suggest ways to expand them. Their
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
chief conclusion is that structural barriers in the U.S. healthcare
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
system stand in the way of such programs. Some of these barriers have to
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
do with health insurance, access to care, and benefits, but the biggest
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
one is the fact that physicians typically specialize in treating either
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
children or adults, rather than families as a whole. The Affordable Care
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Act has begun to break down some of these barriers, the authors write,
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
but much remains to be done.'
