Evidence & Evaluation

The PCC places a large emphasis on the collection and dissemination of evidence on multiple pieces of primary care. The medical home, care team, and payment models are just a few of the topics that PCC has effectively disseminated information about. PCC is committed to research driven, evidence based reform and prides itself on being a hub where patients, providers and payers can go to find high quality information on multiple primary care related topics.
