Refining Reporting Mechanisms in Oregon's Patient-Centered Primary Care Home Program to Improve Performance.

Introduction: As part of its strategy to achieve the Triple Aim, the Oregon Health Authority implemented the Patient-Centered Primary Care Home (PCPCH) Program in 2009. In 2014, the program recognized more than 500 primary care practices and had become an essential component of Oregon's strategy for transforming health services delivery. To assist the Oregon Health Authority with evaluating practices' achievement of the PCPCH model along its 6 core attributes (access, accountability, comprehensive care, continuity, coordination, and person-centered care), the research team developed an innovative scoring method.
