PinnacleHealth is expanding its patient-centered medical home (PCMH) program to triple the existing program at FamilyCare sites throughout Central Pennsylvania. First introduced in 2010 at the Lower Paxton and Marysville FamilyCare offices, the program supports patients as part of the Governor’s Chronic Care Initiative within the PA Department of Health’s Chronic Care and Welfare program. The Community Health Team grew to four nurses in four FamilyCare practices assisting providers to improve the lives of nearly 3,000 patients with chronic illness in 2011.
