Developing Reimbursement Models for the PCMH
Two experts in the medical home model will examine case studies of reimbursement strategies for medical home programs during Reimbursement Models for Medical Homes: From Pilot to Practice, a September 24, 2008 webinar from the Healthcare Intelligence Network.
August 15, 2008
MANASQUAN, NJ, USA — The patient-centered medical home (PCMH) is moving from blueprint to actuality in the healthcare industry. Few question the PCMH’s intention --- to provide family-centered and compassionate coordination of all medical and non-medical services needed by the patient. However, few payors and providers have agreed on payment models that adequately reimburse providers for services rendered through the medical home. Reimbursement Models for Medical Homes: From Pilot to Practice, a September 24, 2008 webinar from the Healthcare Intelligence Network, will examine developing reimbursement strategies for the PCMH. Get more information on medical home reimbursement strategies.

QUOTE ATTRIBUTABLE TO MELANIE MATTHEWS, HIN EXECUTIVE VP AND COO:
Click here for Melanie Matthews's profile.
“Many factors go into developing a PCMH reimbursement model that will satisfy both payors and providers, and these presenters have already completed some of the groundwork. Healthcare organizations contemplating a shift to the PCMH will benefit from this presentation, especially in light of early returns from PCMH pilots for the chronically ill. In particular, diabetes medical home pilots have already demonstrated improved outcomes, reduced ED utilization and reduced PMPM costs for pilot participants."
