PCPCC February 2016 National Briefing Webinar: Do Medical Homes Work?

On February 2, 2016, the PCPCC released its new medical home evidence report, "The Patient-Centered Medical Home's Impact on Cost and Quality: Annual Review of Evidence 2014-2015." The report summarizes PCMH cost and utilization results from peer-reviewed studies, state government evaluations, and industry reports published within the past year. New this year, the report also includes early federal program evaluations. PCPCC President & CEO Marci Nielsen, PhD, MPH, provides an overview of the new report and its highlights, as well as comments about how the evidence ties to the latest health care payment reform efforts.
