The Catalyst Center is a national center dedicated to improving health care insurance and financing for Children and Youth with Special Health Care Needs (CYSHCN).

We work with states and stakeholder groups to identify strategies to:

Cover more kids
Close benefit gaps.
Pay for additional services
Build capacity

We create publications and products, answer technical assistance questions, research innovative state-based financing strategies, guide stakeholders to outside resources, and connect those interested in working together to address complex health care coverage and financing issues.

Funding for this work is through the Maternal & Child Health Bureau, Health Resources and Services Administration, U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, under cooperative agreement #U41MC13618
