Webinar Recording: Putting the Medical Home into Practice for Children

The patient-centered medical home (PCMH) has become known for generating better outcomes for patients, including children. In the late 1960s, the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) developed the medical home model with the goal of delivering better primary care to children and adolescents with special health needs. On this webinar subject matter experts from AAP, Verden Group, and PCC EHR covered the following topics: 

Webinar - Measuring Primary Care Investment: Overcoming Policy and Operational Issues

The panelists on this webinar are thought leaders in work to advance the measurement of primary care spending – at the state, federal and international level. 

Increasing our utilization of primary care will lead to lower costs, higher patient satisfaction, fewer hospitalizations and emergency department visits, and lower mortality. Unfortunately, it is difficult to measure actual primary care spend, which makes it difficult to quantify primary care investment and clearly demonstrate these positive associated outcomes.

The panelists will describe recent work including: 

Peer Support: Enhancing Care for Patients and their Families

This webinar provides an overview of Peer Support services, highlights an organization actively connecting families of children with special needs, and reviews a number of resources available for clinics and families.

Building Partnerships with Patients in Adoption of Choosing Wisely Tools

Hosted by the PCPCC Support & Alignment Network, this webinar will:

1. Explore Choosing Wisely as a strategy for improving care and enhancing patient and family engagement.
2. Learn how implementation of Choosing Wisely effectively engages patients at the point of care and increases shared decision making.
3. Discover how involving patient and family advisors positively impacts implementation of Choosing Wisely tools into your practice. 

Webinar Recording: Transforming Clinical Practice by Supporting Patient and Family Decision Making

This webinar highlighted the work of leading organizations and their efforts to engage patients and families in making smart decisions about their healthcare. The panelists organizations are partnering with PCPCC’s Support and Alignment Network (SAN) to integrate Choosing Wisely into quality improvement activities that support practices enrolled in Transforming Clinical Practice Initiative (TCPI). 

Overcoming Challenges to Ideal Primary Care

On this webinar, physicians in distinct practice settings shared their strategies to overcome challenges to practicing ideal primary care. These challenges included internal communications issues, care coordination, patient engagement, and supporting high-value outcomes. Participants discussed where these strategies can be successful and where additional solutions are needed.

Oregon's Support for Strong Primary Care Webinar

On this webinar, Evan Saulino, MD, PhD, discussed new legislation in Oregon, passed in July 2017, to double, over a five-year period, the amount of money spent by all Oregon payers on primary care. These additional funds will be channeled into primary care alternative payment models. In addition, Dr. Saulino described innovative work by the Oregon Health Authority Patient-Centered Primary Care Home Program (PCPCH).

Evidence Report Briefing on Capitol Hill

At the briefing on Capitol Hill, hosted by the Congressional Primary Care Caucus, the Primary Care Collaborative (PCPCC) unveiled its latest report highlighting new evidence that links the patient-centered medical home (PCMH) and other forms of advanced primary care with improved outcomes, but not in every study examined.

Community Integrated Health in Practices: Partnerships with Impact

Successful practice transformation requires the adoption of broad population health strategies. Community-based organizations can play an integral role in this arena.  As providers accept more risk under value-based payment models, there is a greater emphasis on managing chronic disease.  Evidence-based programs targeting persons with two or more chronic conditions have increasing importance to success with the introduction of new payment models.
