This is going to be fundamental ingredient to success in all 3 of the suggested choices listed. Lean approaches to the principles of PCMH/PCSP will be the common denominator to all that are now thriving and that will thrive regardless of choices otherwise. Most of the studies on supposed "PCMH" are reporting on data from Process Centered Medical Homes rather than Patient Centered Medical Homes. There is a big difference. I have visited multiple PCMH sites that have lowered the PMPM by 20-30% while being in the 10% for practice income and quality measures. That being said, old habits and processes are a challenge to overcome.roateshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01790583139758416841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3503957686158274288.post-39016899250368085712013-11-20T09:17:17.580-06:002013-11-20T09:17:17.580-06:00I assume this is a rhetorical question :-)

I don't think it will work this time....<br />Kevin posted this on his blog this morning, so I am curious to see what the thoughts of the "regulars" there are....Margalit Gur-Ariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08777722834145614546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3503957686158274288.post-10371757081775161292013-11-20T08:09:56.491-06:002013-11-20T08:09:56.491-06:00Thanks Margolit for your insights.
