Establishing Patient Partners: The Health Care Home Model
Journal Title: The Journal of Health Design - Year 2018, Vol 3, Issue 3
Abstract
The Pinnacle Health Care Home Model redesigns primary care to actively promote engaged consumers and enable patients to have more control over their health care. Changes to achieve this include: active promotion of a patient portal; choice of consult mode: 1:1, telephone, email, and shared medical appointments; care provided outside of the practice setting; practice patient participation groups; and consumer panel. Successful change relies heavily on clinical leadership and engagement, space for practice teams to plan and review, credible data to track progress, and new roles added to the traditional primary care team.
