Patient Centered Medical Homes -What is a "Patient-Centered Medical Home"?
A patient-centered medical home is a model of care that strengthens the provider-patient relationship by replacing episodic care with coordinated care and a long-term healing relationship. Each patient has a relationship with their primary care provider who will lead a team that takes collective responsibility for patient care, providing for the patient's health care needs and arranging for appropriate care with other qualified provider.
