What is PCMH?
![Page 5: How to Achieve a PCMH Certification - Small Practice - Practice-centered medical home](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081507/554b8e7ab4c90574668b53d0/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
PCMH-The Concept• Enhanced Patient Access - during and after office hours• ‘Team-Based Care’ approach from the clinic team• Improved delivery & tracking of preventive services • Clinical excellence in chronic disease management• Improved care at ‘Transition of Care’ points: Reduced utilization
of ER and hospitals• Shared Decision Making: better quality and experience of care• Long-term Patient & Provider Relationships
• High performing, cost effective, integrated care delivery system
![Page 6: How to Achieve a PCMH Certification - Small Practice - Practice-centered medical home](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022081507/554b8e7ab4c90574668b53d0/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Why bother with PCMH?POINT• Primary care reimbursement has not kept pace with the care burden• For now there is no incentive payments for PCMHCOUNTER POINT• Market forces & regulations within the system are forcing changes in
healthcare: the practice of medicine is transforming
• Consumers of healthcare are demanding better access to care, and third party payers are transitioning to ‘pay for performance’
• There is a tsunami of change that is going to move us away from a ‘fee for service’ industry
• PCMH concepts are born out a need for such health care reform

PCMH: one size does not fit all• Its not for every practice…. and • may not be needed for every patient in the practice…
• Large healthcare delivery systems seem to be adopting it first.• Smaller practices may have challenges in such transformation.
Strategy:-• Chronic disease = high risk patients = >High utilizers of care. • Particular focus on the complex patients Pay 4 Performance• Friedberg M. et al. “Association Between Participation in a Multipayer Medical Home Intervention and Changes in Quality,
Utilization, and Costs of Care”.JAMA.2014;311(8).815-825.• Schwenk,T. “The Patient Centered Medical Home. One size Does Not Fit All”. JAMA.Feb.2014.311

Consider PCMH Concepts use on High Utilizers of Care
• Use Amazing Charts Queries to:• cull data on subset populations…identify high risk
groups • Identify patients that need further
intervention in care• Identify lack of follow-up• Resolve poly-pharmacy and medication
interaction issues at point of care

Proposal for Your Practice
• Establish a ‘Clinical Care Coordinator’ in office• Intervene at ‘Transition of Care’ points• Enhance communication with your
specialists• Survey your patient perceptions of care

Creating a Healthcare Delivery Team in Your Office
Keep employees who share in the vision and mission of the organization
Evolve away from ‘top-down leadership’ trends into a ‘shared leadership’ philosophy
Assign specific task oriented roles to specific team members…..
identify the strength of each employee and utilize itbut cross train all employees
‘shared decision making’---listen to patients and employees regularly. Regular team meetings.
