Abstract
Project Initiate is a pilot study of early neuromotor outcomes in high risk newborn infants
who are referred to Early Intervention services after NICU discharge. The investigators
hypothesize that infants with Medicaid insurance who have prompt access to weekly
post-discharge therapy services will have better early neuromotor function at 3 months
corrected age and better parent satisfaction than infants who receive only care coordination
to help with Early Intervention enrollment and locating outpatient transitional services as
indicated.
