Title: CINCINNATI CENTER FOR DEVELOPMENTAL DISORDERS (CCDD): A CASE STUDY IN INSURING UNINSURED CHILDREN WITH DEVELOPMENTAL DISABILITIES
Author: WOOLFOLK, AVERY
Description: The theme of this research was a case study of the Cincinnati Center for Developmental Disorders. CCDD as it is commonly called is one of 61 University Affiliated Programs located in the United States. CCDD in it's 57 years history has never turned away a child that did not have medical insurance. This theses examined what CCDD does, and how it operates as an organization. Developmental Disabilities are complex by definitions alone, and any research that offers insight into the problem of assisting children that do not have health insurance is a study that this thesis cannot resolve in and of itself. This thesis does offer some insight how one organization has done its part in helping to resolve a national problem. This thesis does not produce solutions to the health care problems of uninsured men, women, and children in America. This thesis is a case study of the Cincinnati Center for Developmental Disorders and the role it has performed in helping individuals, and families with developmental disabilities. This thesis does offer recommendations that can resolve some of the health care, and insurance problems in America. Developmental Disabilities is a complex disease, this thesis offers insight into an organization whose sole purpose is to assist individuals, and families with developmental disabilities, learn to live independent lives without any state of federal assistance.
