Patient Centered Medical Home

What is a Patient Centered Medical Home?

A patient-centered medical home (PCMH) is a model of primary care that puts patients at the center of their care. The PCMH model involves a team of care providers who work together to coordinate a patient's care, including prevention, acute care, and chronic care. The PCMH model is designed to be patient-centered, comprehensive, coordinated, accessible, high quality, and safe. 

Some characteristics of a PCMH include: 

  • Patient-centered: Patients are supported in learning to manage their own care, and are fully involved in developing their care plans. 
  • Team-based: A team of care providers, including nurses and pharmacists, work together to ensure that everyone is on the same page about the patient's care. 
  • Culturally appropriate: The PCMH model is designed to be culturally appropriate. 
  • Cost-effective: The PCMH model is designed to be cost-effective. 
  • Improved patient outcomes: Research shows that PCMHs improve quality and the patient experience, while reducing health care costs.
