"An episode of care-based model for addiction recovery creates a wholesale, top-to-bottom reordering of the way healthcare is delivered, measured and paid for. Substance use services historically have been delivered in short-term and fragmented settings which are inherently more expensive and produce poor outcomes."
- François de Brantes, SVP of commercial business lines, Remedy.

Over the past eight years the number of clinicians working in PCMH practices [in New York state] has increased at an average rate of roughly 15 percent a year, from 3,400 clinicians in 2011 to more than 9,000 at the end of May 2018.
