Evan Saulino, a family physician at the Providence Southeast Family Medicine Clinic, will describe innovative work by the Oregon Health Authority Patient-Centered Primary Care Home Program (PCPCH). Dr. Saulino acts as the Clinical Advisor for Oregon’s PCPCH Program, which works with clinics serving over 3 million patients across Oregon.
The Oregon Legislature established the PCPCH program in 2009 through passage of House Bill 2009. The goals of the program are to develop strategies to identify and measure what a primary care home does, promote their development and encourage Oregonians to seek care through recognized Patient-Centered Primary Care Homes.
Dr. Salino will also describe the new Oregon legislation, passed in July 2017, to double over a five year period the amount of money spent by all OR payers on primary care. These additional funds will be channeled into primary care alternative payment models.
