Welcome to your child’s Patient Centered Medical Home

What is Patient Centered Medical Home?

In an effort to ensure complete patient care, the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) established the Patient Centered Medical Home (PCMH) program for primary care practices. The main focus of PCMH is to promote a partnership between the provider and patient by actively involving the patient in their own care. A PCMH is an office where the patient has an ongoing relationship with a primary care physician (PCP) and care team who provide continuous and complete care at all times.

Benefits of PCMH

  • Better engaged & happier patients
  • Lower inpatient admissions
  • Improved clinical outcomes· Reduced ER visits and hospital readmissions
  • Increased patient satisfaction
