Health care organizations and delivery systems serving high-need, high-cost Medicaid populations are increasingly recognizing the prevalence of trauma among their patients and taking steps to adopt trauma-informed approaches to better address patient needs. Trauma-informed care seeks to change the clinical perspective from asking “What is wrong with you?” to “What happened to you?” and strives to create an environment that supports the unique needs of patients who have experienced trauma and staff who work with them.Ìý
