Legislative Issues
The Patient-Centered Primary Care Collaborative is a multi-stakeholder coalition with a goal to develop and advance the patient-centered medical home (PCMH). In support of this goal, the Collaborative actively pursues inclusion of the medical home concept in legislative, administrative and regulatory agency activities. The Collaborative is non-partisan in its approach; we believe in the efficacy of the medical home to improve healthcare delivery for all Americans and that the benefits of the PCMH are clear on both sides of the aisle. We have developed model PCMH language that is widely accepted and included in healthcare reform bills.
