It has become clear that Americans pay too much for healthcare and get too little for their money. That is because our fragmented healthcare system emphasizes higher cost, intensive rescue care over higher-value primary care. One of the solutions to addressing the future of healthcare delivery lies in transforming traditional primary care practices into patient-centered medical homes.
