Your Medical Home

The medical home is a model for your primary care that is patient-centered, comprehensive, team-based, coordinated, accessible, and focused on quality and safety in patient health care. It emphasizes making your primary Provider the central provider of your health care needs, allowing better and more cost conscious care due to their thorough knowledge of your health history.

All 3 of our offices achieved highest recognition (level 3) as a Medical Home by the U.S. National Committee for Quality Assurance for providing the best evidenced based care.

As a Medical Home, we currently are giving special attention to the care and cure of 3 health conditions common in our patients; smoking, diabetes, and hypertension.

We maintain 2 Care Management nurses trained in outpatient care of chronic disease conditions. They work with your primary care physician to assist you with getting health advice at home to help you and your primary keep you well enough to avoid needing ER or hospital care.
