"A lot of people think of the medical home as a source of primary care,
or just a place to go when you need to see a doctor, but it's far, far
more than that. That's why there is a high expectation that medical
homes may be a very important factor in improving care in this country."
Bonnie Strickland, Director, U.S. Health Resources and Services
Administration's division of services for children with special health
care needs |
