Precision medicine to precision care: managing multimorbidity.
Multimorbidity is the most common condition managed in practice. The authors argue that health-care delivery must be transformed to provide precision care to people with multimorbidity. Accomplishing this transition will require a change in practice, research, and policy from disease-specific to patient-centered models of care delivery.

Housing, transportation, and food: how ACOs seek to improve population health by addressing nonmedical needs of patients.
The authors examined how accountable care organizations (ACOs) addressed the nonmedical needs of their patients. They found that ACOs most commonly addressed the need for transportation, housing, and food insecurity, which they identified through the primary care visit or care transformation programs. They concluded that their findings offer insights into how health care organizations such as ACOs integrate themselves with nonmedical organizations.

Development of an inventory for health-care office staff to self-assess their patient-centered cultural sensitivity.
The researchers sought to determine the psychometric properties of the Tucker-Culturally Sensitive Health Care Office Staff Inventory-Self-Assessment Form (T-CSHCOSI-SAF). They found that this inventory has 2 factors with high internal consistency reliability. They concluded that the T-CSHCOSI-SAF is a useful inventory for health-care office staff to assess their own level of patient-centered cultural sensitivity and that it can be used in the development and implementation of trainings to promote patient-centered cultural sensitivity of health-care office staff.
