Well-Child Visits

Well-Child Visits

Another DCYF health goal is that children and youth reach developmentally appropriate milestones. Data from developmental screenings, such as the Early Periodic Screening, Diagnosis, and Treatment (EPSDT) assessment, can be used to track progress on healthy child and youth development; however, this information is not currently available. Statewide, in State Fiscal Year 2025, 57% of 3 to 11 year olds on Medicaid received at least one well-care visit. County rates ranged from a low of 35% in Ferry county to a high of 73% in Adams county. The King county rate was 58%, the Pierce county rate was 56%, the Snohomish county rate was 54%, the Clark county rate was 51%, and the Spokane county rate was 64%.
