Northern Orthopaedics is also recognized by the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) as a Patient-Centered Medical Home. According to the NCQA, patients of Patient-Centered practices are more likely to:
Stay healthy. Patients who are treated in PCMHs tend to receive preventative services and screenings at a higher rate than patients not in PCMHs, helping keep them healthy.
Receive Better communication. A core concept of the PCMH model is to communicate with patients and their families/caregivers. The model emphasizes enhanced access so patients can get clinical advice or medical records when needed.
Better manage chronic conditions. PCMHs are especially helpful for patients with complex chronic conditions. Research shows that these conditions are managed better in a medical home.
Have a better experience. When attributes of team-based care are described to people, they say it is the type of care they want to receive.
