PATIENT CENTERED MEDICAL CENTER


According to the Patient Centered Medical Home Resource Center, The medical home model holds promise as a way to improve healthcare in America by transforming how primary care is organized and delivered. Building on the work of a large and growing community, the Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) defines a medical home not simply as a place but as a model of the organization of primary care that delivers the core functions of primary health care (https://pcmh.ahrq.gov/page/defining-pcmh).


A patient-centered medical home model includes:


-Patients have a relationship with a personal physician.

-The physician-led care team is responsible for the patient’s comprehensive care.

-Patients can expect care that is coordinated across care settings and disciplines.

-Quality is measured and improved as part of daily work flow.

-Patients experience enhanced access and communication.

-Medical homes use EHRs, registries, and other clinical support systems (https://www.foma.org/patient-centered-medical-home.html).
