Patient-centered medical home and quality measurement in small practices.
In this retrospective cohort study, the investigators sought to assess performance on quality measures among small primary care practices that recently adopted an electronic health record (EHR), and how performance differs between practices that have achieved patient-centered medical home (PCMH) recognition and those that have not. They found that among small practices that have adopted EHRs, practices with PCMH recognition consistently outperformed practices without recognition on 5 out of 7 clinical quality measures over the 2-year study period.
