Physician Resources and TrainingBuilding Your Medical Home Toolkit
The Toolkit supports your development and/or improvement of a pediatric Medical Home. It also prepares you to apply for and potentially meet the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) Physician Practice Connections’ Patient Centered Medical Home (PPC-PCMHTM) Recognition program requirements. The AAP created a crosswalk between each of the Toolkit building blocks and the NCQA PPC-PCMH Recognition Program ‘must pass’ elements. NCQA’s Patient-Centered Medical Home
The NCQA now recognizes clinician practices functioning as medical homes by using systematic, patient-centered and coordinated care management processes.
NCQA’s Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH) is an innovative program for improving primary care. Center for Medical Home Improvement
