The Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH) model of care provides greater satisfaction to patients, physicians, and the health care team by ensuring that patients' needs are met and access to care is improved, health information is handled effectively, and the team works as a cohesive unit.
The AAFP and the STFM Group on Predoctoral Education have designed a presentation for medical students that explains the PCMH and its importance to family physicians. This PowerPoint presentation is below and is accompanied by a document with suggested speakers' notes that can help in presenting this information. Family medicine faculty are encouraged to give this presentation to medical students, FMIG groups and others.
Also, the AAFP has created a short video about PCMH.
