2019 Clinical Integration Program
The CIN is now in its fourth year and, as physicians in the CIN, we have all committed to cultivating collaborative relationships with each other and improving the quality and efficiency of care we provide to our patients. You may have heard from your chairs and administrators about the 2019 program requirements. You may also view a brief video or PowerPoint module on Mount Sinai’s Clinical Integration Learning Center (CILC), which is available from PEAK, Mount Sinai’s education portal.
In 2019, the requirements slightly differ for primary care providers (PCPs) and specialists. MSHP has identified the following provider-types as PCPs:
Pediatricians, Geriatricians, Ambulatory Internal Medicine, and Family Medicine physicians
.
