As patient-centered medical homes continue to offer the promise of improved patient outcomes, innovators are looking for better ways to leverage the medical neighborhood and coordinate care across settings. During this webinar, participants will hear from leading experts about managing chronically ill populations, including the frail elderly, and engage in discussions about the role of home health care in partnership with the PCMH. It will also include a brief overview of what home health can offer the PCMH, how to integrate home health within the medical home model, and how partnerships with home health can facilitate meeting PCMH metrics and milestones.
