Clinics Recognized for the 7th Consecutive Year
For the seventh consecutive year, our clinics located have been recognized as Patient Centered Medical Homes (PCMH).
PCMH is not a physical "home", but a healthcare delivery model that puts patients at the forefront of care. PCMHs build better relationships between patients and their clinical care teams. According to the National Council for Quality Assurance (NCQA), PCMHs improve quality and the patient experience, increase staff satisfaction and help to reduce healthcare costs. Practices that earn PCMH recognitions have made a commitment to continuous quality improvement and a patient-centered approach to care.
The annual PCMH review and certification process includes data collection and providing preventative education and resources to promote improved physical and mental health in the communities we serve. In 2023, CHCS was above the Centers for Medicare Services average scoring in all areas, Colorectal Cancer Screening, Breast Cancer Screening, Influenza and Pneumonia Vaccines, Documentation of Medication, Diabetes Poor Control and Appropriate Testing for Children with Pharyngitis.
“I applaud all of our clinic staff for their commitment to the PCMH model and for their dedication to improving the health and lives of our patients, said Manda Thompson, Quality Specialist and PCMH Coordinator. Their efforts continue set us apart and drive our success with quality measures.”
Congratulations to all our clinic staff!
