Duration of medical home participation and quality of care for patients with chronic conditions.
The objective of this study was to examine whether the length of participation in a patient-centered medical home (PCMH), an evidence-based practice, led to higher quality care for Medicaid enrollees with multiple co-morbid chronic conditions and major depressive disorder (MDD). The investigators concluded that the PCMH model was associated with higher quality of care for patients with multiple chronic conditions and MDD over time, and these benefits increased the longer a patient was enrolled.

Practices and changes associated with patient-centered medical home transformation.
Knowing which patient-centered medical home (PCMH) care delivery changes and quality improvement (QI) practices further PCMH implementation is essential. In this study, the investigators used the 2008-2017 National Committee of Quality Assurance (NCQA) PCMH directory of 15,188 primary care practices that received Level 1, 2, or 3 NCQA PCMH recognition to: 1.) construct a stratified national sample of 105 practices engaged in PCMH transformation and 2.) examine their QI practices and PCMH changes associated with PCMH transformation.

Using CAHPS patient experience data for patient-centered medical home transformation.
The purpose of this study was to examine how primary care practices used the Consumer Assessment of Healthcare Providers and Systems (CAHPS) survey and its patient-centered medical home (PCMH) items during their PCMH transition. The investigators concluded that CAHPS surveys were considered actionable for PCMH transformation and used in standardizing and coordinating care. The CAHPS PCMH items were considered integral to the continuous QI needed for moving beyond formal PCMH recognition and maximizing transformation.
