Care built around your child
Care built around the whole child
A medical home is not a building or an insurance product. It is an approach to care that is accessible, family-centered, continuous, comprehensive, coordinated, compassionate, and culturally responsive. Sapphire supports follow-up after specialty visits and hospital stays and for ongoing health conditions.
Care coordination helps families and clinicians share a plan, understand who is responsible for each next step, and connect with specialists, schools, therapists, hospitals, or community resources when needed.
How this care can help
Start with the concern. We will help organize what comes next.
Connect the record
Ask outside clinicians to send reports and keep medication and contact details current.
Clarify responsibility
Know who is handling referrals, forms, results, follow-up, and the next appointment.
Raise conflicts
Ask when instructions do not line up or the next step is unclear.
A clear next step
A clear plan for what comes next
Coordination may include reviewing outside records, updating the care plan, medication reconciliation, referrals, communication with other clinicians, school or therapy forms, and follow-up after significant transitions. Completion time and coverage vary.

Questions families often ask.
Schedule on MyChart, or call our office if you’re unsure which appointment best fits your child’s needs.
Does a medical home replace specialists?
No. It helps connect primary and specialty care around the child and family.
Will Sapphire receive every outside record automatically?
No. Families may need to authorize a release or ask the outside organization to send records.
Can the team guarantee an outside appointment?
No. The team can support appropriate referrals and coordination, but outside access depends on the receiving organization and insurance requirements.
