As of August, 2014, there are 87 practices (associated with 323 sites and 1,273 providers) enrolled in the Department’s PCMH program. These practices are serving over 254,000 Medicaid beneficiaries. Beneficiaries are attributed to these practices based on their use of them, as opposed to the typical managed care approach of assigning beneficiaries regardless of their preference. On the whole, health outcomes (e.g. use of preventative visits, management of chronic conditions ncluding diabetes) for participants of PCMH practices are better than for individuals not served by a PCMH.
