SIM committee to discuss PCMH national home standards

The first meeting of the SIM Practice Management Taskforce will re-visit SIM’s earlier decision to reject national standards for patient-centered medical homes. National standards, such as NCQA, have been very successful nationally and in CT in improving health outcomes while controlling costs. Advocates have serious concerns about eroding standards that promote quality care and ensure we are paying for value. The meeting will be Tuesday June 24th from 6 to 8pm at the CT State Medical Society’s offices, 127 Washington Ave, East Building, Third Floor, North Haven CT.
