Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH): Team-Based Care
All of the material for this review comes from the National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA) 2014 Patient-Centered Medical Home standards (accessed July 27, 2015), Section 2: Team-Based Care, Elements A, B, C and D (Page 38-46).
Practices must obtain 86 points or more to be considered a Level 3 practice. As a result, not every listed factor must be met by every practice to obtain NCQA PCMH recognition. Each section has its own point value, as well as each element. Critical Factors must be met for practices to receive a score on that element. If the element is a must pass element, failure to meet a critical factor will result in denial of recognition.
Element A: Continuity – 3.00 points
Element B: Medical Home Responsibilities – 2.50 points
Element C: Culturally and Linguistically Appropriate Services – 2.50 points
Element D: The Practice Team (must-pass) – 4.00 points
