Keep informed with the PCMH Policies & Procedures Guidebook: Based on the National Committee for Quality Assurance’s PCMH Standards and Guidelines - eBook.

The goal of the medical home is simple: to obtain the best possible outcomes for patients by coordinating the medical team’s care with available community resources. This care delivery concept is called a patient-centered medical home or PCMH.

This resource can help your organization no matter where it is in the progression of PCMH adoption. Information in this guidebook can assist in refining patient throughput, education and related processes into a highly functional model, or serve as an outline for the first steps on the journey to becoming a medical home. The PCMH recognition means accepting the imperative to be the most effective coordinator of patient care across all care settings, which may include primary, specialty, ancillary, inpatient and community-based services.

The PCMH circle of care also includes the patient’s family, caregivers and the broader community. This eBook can help your organization in applying for and obtaining recognition as a medical home through the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) PCMH program. This electronic book with customizable policies is based on the NCQA’s PCMH Standards and Guidelines.

A step-by-step guide, this eBook assists your coordination of that journey by providing practical infrastructure in the form of concrete policies and procedures aligned with the NCQA’s PCMH Standards and Guidelines (Version 7: Effective January 1, 2022).
