Patient Centered Medical Home
‘’PCMH is a patient-centered healthcare model. The care provided by this model strengthens the doctor-patient relationship, replacing periodic visits with coordinated, long-term care. Each patient will have a relationship with their primary physician and healthcare team that is personalized, coordinated, effective and efficient. PCMH transforms the way we view clinical care, focusing on the primary care team, in addition to giving the patient an essential role in their health care. CSCHC's team of health professionals uses the American Medical Association (AMA) health care guidelines as the basis for their health care. In addition, it is governed by the highest quality standards and regulations of the Federal and State Government.”
