The Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH) has been advocated as a model for improving the delivery and outcomes of primary, particularly care of chronic illness. Increasing numbers agencies are transforming their care and becoming certified PCMHs through NCQA, the Joint Commission, and other organizations. The HIV Medical Homes Resource Center (HIV-MHRC) is a cooperative agreement, funded by the HRSA/HAB, to support Ryan White HIV/AIDS program clinics/practices to develop PCMHs for persons living with HIV (PLWH) and achieve PCMH certification. This workshop will provide an introduction to the PCMH model of care and the role of PCMHs in the care of PLWH. It will also discuss PCMH development in Ryan White HIV/AIDS program clinics/practices and the activities and resources of the HIV-MHRC.
