When will the transformation be complete?
The process of being recognized by NCQA as an Advanced Primary Care Practice/Patient Centered Medical Home is a lengthy one. It involves changes in policies, practices and systems. We have already begun the process and have key infrastructure already in place, including an Electronic Health Record (EHR) System in place which includes a patient portal with 24/7 access for our patients. Other changes are in progress.
