"We are pleased that the proposed Shared Savings rule emphasizes
coordination of patient care – a core tenet of patient centered medical
homes. This is particularly important for vulnerable older adults with
numerous health problems, who use the most health care services, at the
highest cost, but with the poorest health outcomes." Debra L. Ness,
Leader, Campaign for Better Care, Washington, DC |
