| Résumé : | [BDSP. Notice produite par INIST-CNRS zgmH2R0x. Diffusion soumise à autorisation]. Objectives. This study examined the knowledge of and application for health-related welfare program provisions among beneficiaries with children who have chronic conditions. Methods. We administered a survey to 143 parents of children aged 3 to 16 years with asthma or sickle cell anemia in 2 clinical settings. Results. Respondents indicated incomplete knowledge of work requirements (69.9%) and work exemptions (50.3%). Applications for work exemptions were rare, even among Supplemental Security Income recipients (30%). Conclusions. Welfare beneficiaries with children who have chronic conditions show limited knowledge and use of program provisions, placing them at risk for penalties or benefit termination. |
