PCPCC Webinar: New Center Structure PresentationTuesday, September 11, 2012 11:00 AM - 12:00 PM EDTAs you know, the Primary Care Collaborative (PCPCC) has had an incredible year! Nearly everyone in health care and health policy is talking about investing in primary care as a solution to transforming our health care system to one that delivers on the triple aim of better care, better health, at lower cost. The Primary Care Collaborative (PCPCC) has been front and center during this groundswell of support for primary care and will continue to do so in the upcoming years.
The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) announced last month a competitive funding opportunity for States to design and test multi-payer payment and delivery models that deliver high-quality health care and improve health system performance. Under the State Innovation Models initiative, states can apply for either Model Testing awards or Model Design awards.
