Jim Tufano attended the Military Health System 2010 National Conference in National Harbor, Maryland, as an invited and supported speaker. He co-presented on January 26th with Col. George Patrin, MD on strategies for realizing return on investment (ROI) associated with primary care redesign initiatives based on the Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH) concept. Jim's presentation focused on reviewing evidence on the effectiveness of primary care in promoting cost-effective population health, and the need to assess effects of PCMH primary redesign initiatives that incorporate meaningful uses of HIT on specific dimensions of care quality including continuity, comprehensiveness, patient-centered access, and coordination. |
