Patient Engagement

Patient engagement plays a critical role in transforming the way health care is delivered and in improving patient health outcomes. For this to happen, patients need to foster a trusted relationship with their primary care team.

Innovative practices have incorporated several strategies to boost patient engagement, including: 

  • employing health coaches who work with patients and educate them about their conditions and listen to their concerns
  • connecting patients to community resources
  • using patient advisory councils to advise the practice on what they can do to better serve patients and the community 
  • creating web-based portals to facilitate additional pathways for patient-provider communication and collaboration

This resource looks at a chronic care program designed to manage patients with comorbid HIV patients enrolled in Medicaid to see how the program affected costs. The study showed that costs were reduced by over $200 per patient per month. This shows how the PCMH model can lead to higher-value, more efficient care.
