OBJECTIVES By the end of this session the learner will be able to: Discuss the need for change in the healthcare system of the US. Describe the seven principles of the patient-centered medical home Describe some of the proven benefits of the patient-centered medical home Discuss the variety of locations, collaborative partners, clinic types and health care settings that have successfully used the patient centered medical home

IHI TRIPLE AIM Work to improve site-specific care for individuals should expand and thrive. In our view, however, the United States will not achieve high-value health care unless improvement initiatives pursue a broader system of linked goals. In the aggregate, we call those goals the Triple Aim: improving the individual experience of care; [better care] improving the health of populations; [better health] and reducing the per capita costs of care for populations.

BETTER HEALTH At least 44,000 people, and perhaps as many as 98,000 people, die in hospitals each year as a result of medical errors that could have been prevented, according to estimates from two major studies. Even using the lower estimate, preventable medical errors in hospitals exceed attributable deaths to such feared threats as motor-vehicle wrecks, breast cancer, and AIDS.

DANGER WILL ROBINSON! DANGER! US estimates of the combined effect of errors and adverse effects that occur because of iatrogenic damage not associated with recognizable error include: 12,000 deaths/year from unnecessary surgery 7000 deaths/year from medication errors in hospitals 20,000 deaths/year from other errors in hospitals 80,000 deaths/year from nosocomial infections in hospitals 106,000 deaths/year from nonerror, adverse effects of medications These total to 225,000 deaths per year from iatrogenic causes.

THE PATIENT-CENTERED MEDICAL HOME The Patient Centered Medical Home is a health care setting that facilitates partnerships between individual patients, and their personal physicians, and when appropriate, the patients family. Care is facilitated by registries, information technology, health information exchange and other means to assure that patients get the indicated care when and where they need and want it in a culturally and linguistically appropriate manner. http://www.ncqa.org/Programs/Recognition/PatientCenteredMedicalHomePCMH.aspx

WHY OUTPATIENT? N England Journal of Medicine 2001;344:2021-25]: A typical month of health care in the United States

HISTORY OF THE PCMH 1967 AAP introduces the term medical home, which described a single source of medical information about a patient 1978 - WHO made the Alma Ata declaration describing the importance of primary care. This also laid some of the basic tenets in language that is now used to describe the PCMH 1990s IOM begins mentioning the medical home 2002 The Future of Family Medicine Collaborative every American should have a Personal Medical Home that serves as the focal point through which all individuals regardless of age, sex, race, or socioeconomic statusreceive their acute, chronic, and preventive medical care services. recognizing the importance of the Chronic Care Model as a contributor to the PCMH 2006 ACP developed advanced medical home 2006 IBM and Patient Centered Primary Care Collaborative to promote the medical home concept

Quality and Safety 6. Enhanced Access 7. Payment http://www.pcpcc.net/content/joint-principles-patient-centered-medical-home

JOINT PRINCIPLES OF THE PATIENT-CENTERED MEDICAL HOME Personal physician Each patient has an ongoing relationship with a personal physician trained to provide first contact, continuous and comprehensive care. http://www.pcpcc.net/content/joint-principles-patient-centered-medical-home

JOINT PRINCIPLES OF THE PATIENT-CENTERED MEDICAL HOME Physician directed medical practice The personal physician leads a team of individuals at the practice level who collectively take responsibility for the ongoing care of patients. http://www.pcpcc.net/content/joint-principles-patient-centered-medical-home

JOINT PRINCIPLES OF THE PATIENT-CENTERED MEDICAL HOME Whole person orientation The personal physician is responsible for providing for all the patients health care needs or taking responsibility for appropriately arranging care with other qualified professionals. This includes care for all stages of life; acute care; chronic care; preventive services; and end of life care. http://www.pcpcc.net/content/joint-principles-patient-centered-medical-home

JOINT PRINCIPLES OF THE PATIENT-CENTERED MEDICAL HOME Care is coordinated and/or integrated across all elements of the complex health care system (e.g., subspecialty care, hospitals, home health agencies, nursing homes) and the patients community (e.g., family, public and private community-based services). Care is facilitated by registries, information technology, health information exchange and other means to assure that patients get the indicated care when and where they need and want it in a culturally and linguistically appropriate manner. http://www.pcpcc.net/content/joint-principles-patient-centered-medical-home

JOINT PRINCIPLES OF THE PATIENT-CENTERED MEDICAL HOME Quality and safety are hallmarks of the medical home: Practices advocate for their patients to support the attainment of optimal, patient-centered outcomes that are defined by a care planning process driven by a compassionate, robust partnership between physicians, patients, and the patients family. Evidence-based medicine and clinical decision-support tools guide decision making Physicians in the practice accept accountability for continuous quality improvement through voluntary engagement in performance measurement and improvement. Patients actively participate in decision-making and feedback is sought to ensure patients expectations are being met Information technology is utilized appropriately to support optimal patient care, performance measurement, patient education, and enhanced communication Practices go through a voluntary recognition process by an appropriate non-governmental entity to demonstrate that they have the capabilities to provide patient centered services consistent with the medical home model. Patients and families participate in quality improvement activities at the practice level. http://www.pcpcc.net/content/joint-principles-patient-centered-medical-home

JOINT PRINCIPLES OF THE PATIENT-CENTERED MEDICAL HOME Enhanced access to care is available through systems such as open scheduling, expanded hours and new options for communication between patients, their personal physician, and practice staff. http://www.pcpcc.net/content/joint-principles-patient-centered-medical-home

JOINT PRINCIPLES OF THE PATIENT-CENTERED MEDICAL HOME Payment appropriately recognizes the added value provided to patients who have a patient-centered medical home. The payment structure should be based on the following framework: It should reflect the value of physician and non-physician staff patient-centered care management work that falls outside of the face-to-face visit. It should pay for services associated with coordination of care both within a given practice and between consultants, ancillary providers, and community resources. It should support adoption and use of health information technology for quality improvement; It should support provision of enhanced communication access such as secure e-mail and telephone consultation; It should recognize the value of physician work associated with remote monitoring of clinical data using technology. It should allow for separate fee-for-service payments for face-to-face visits. (Payments for care management services that fall outside of the face-to-face visit, as described above, should not result in a reduction in the payments for face-to-face visits). It should recognize case mix differences in the patient population being treated within the practice. It should allow physicians to share in savings from reduced hospitalizations associated with physician- guided care management in the office setting. It should allow for additional payments for achieving measurable and continuous quality improvements. http://www.pcpcc.net/content/joint-principles-patient-centered-medical-home
