““Ideal Primary Care” goes Medical HomeIdeal Primary Care” goes Medical Home 2010… 2010…
All members of the interdisciplinary team received PCMH training at each stage
Local PCHM practices offer to mentor them
Premier consultancy agency provides on-line and on-the-ground guidance
Cooperative extension service sends their extension agent to provide continuing advice and assistance
Insurers change their compensation model
The practice successfully makes the transition to the PCHM, increases not only the satisfaction of patients and clinicians, but health outcomes and the bottom line
They become mentors and their children join the 4H club (health, humanism, (medical) home, and happiness) and win first prize at the State Health Fair
The Hope: a medical home in every community and a team for every home
