A Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH) is a trusting partnership between a doctor led health care team and an informed patient.  It includes an agreement between the doctor and the patient that acknowledges the role of each in a total health care program.

• We ask what your goal is, or what you want to do to improve your health.
• We ask you to help us plan your care, and to let us know if  you think you can follow the plan
• We remind you when tests are due so that you can receive the best quality care
• We may ask you to have blood tests done before your visit so that the doctor has the results at your visit
• We are exploring methods to care for you better; including ways to help you care for yourself. 
  

What can you do for us?

• Tell us what you know about your health and illnesses
• Follow the care plan that is agreed upon-or let us know why you cannot so that we can try to help, or change the plan
• Let us know when you see other doctors
• Seek our advice before you see other physicians. We may be able to care for you and we know about the strengths of various specialists. 
• Learn about wellness and how to prevent disease
• Keep your appointments as scheduled, or call and let us know when you cannot
• Give us feedback so we can improve our services.
  

Together we can...

·   Provide you with a care team who will know you and your family

·   Respect you as an individual-we will not make judgments based on race, religion, sex, age, disability, etc.

·   Give care that meets your needs and fits with your goals and values

·   Have a doctor on call 24 hours a day and 7 days a week

·   Take care of short illness, long term disease and give advice to help you stay healthy

·   To improve your care we are using technology-like our Electronic Health Record and we will strive to continuously improve
