Patient-centered medical home care access among adults with chronic conditions: National Estimates from the medical expenditure panel survey

摘要

BackgroundThe Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH) model is a coordinated-care model that has served as a means to improve several chronic disease outcomes and reduce management costs. However, access to PCMH has not been explored among adults suffering from chronic conditions in the United States. Therefore, the aim of this study was to describe the changes in receiving PCMH among adults suffering from chronic conditions that occurred from 2010 through 2015 and to identify predisposing, enabling, and need factors associated with receiving a PCMH.
