Medical Homes
A Medical Home is a healthcare model that provides comprehensive, coordinated care to patients. It emphasizes a team-based approach, where a primary care provider leads a team of healthcare professionals to address all aspects of a patient's health. This model aims to improve access to care, enhance patient satisfaction, and promote better health outcomes.
In a Medical Home, patients receive personalized care plans tailored to their individual needs. The focus is on preventive care, chronic disease management, and continuous communication between patients and their healthcare team. This approach helps ensure that patients receive timely and appropriate care, reducing the need for emergency services and hospitalizations.
