The evaluation program, called Patient-Centered Connected Care Recognition, is meant to align with patient-centered medical home care models in which primary care providers track and coordinate all patient care.
The program helps provide a set of standards for nontraditional outpatient settings to fit into the medical home setting. Facilities that measure performance, connect with primary care providers, provide patient care and support and have electronic data capabilities have the opportunity to earn an NCQA seal of approval if the facilities meet program standards.
