The Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH) model transforms how primary care is organized and delivered. Patients are encouraged to be more involved in their treatment, leading to better disease management and lower care costs. There are also financial incentives available to PCMH-recognized providers.

PCDC has helped over 800 practices achieve PCMH recognition with a 100% success rate. Our expert trainers tailor one-on-one coaching modules to each practice’s unique needs, maximizing time, value, and resources.
