South County Medical Group Primary Care East Greenwich, Wakefield, and Westerly are Patient Centered Medical Homes (PCMH). In a PCMH, the focus of the medical practice is on the entire patient and specifically on disease prevention. Despite its name, PCMHs are not “homes” but medical practices that have met specific criteria set by the National Committee for Quality Assurance.
How does a PCMH differ from a traditional primary care practice?
PCMHs coordinate all aspects of care for their patients, emphasizing the use of preventive care and regular screenings and supporting people with diabetes, depression, and other chronic diseases in new and innovative ways.
