It's not a place... It's a partnership with your primary care provider.

PCMH puts you at the center of your care, working with your health care team to create a personalized plan for reaching your goals.
Your primary care team is focused on getting to know you and earning your trust. They care about you while caring for you.
Technology makes it easy to get health care when and how you need it. You can reach your doctor through email, video chat, or after-hour phone calls. Mobile apps and electronic resources help you stay on top of your health and medical history.

Studies show that PCMH:

  • Provides better support and communication.

  • Creates stronger relationships with your providers.

  • Saves you time.
