PCMHs excel at building clear and open communication among patients and families\, the medical home and members of the broader care team (https://pcmh.ahrq.gov/page/defining-pcmh). They also focus on the exchange of information between providers and between the practice and other care settings\, for patient safety and to ensure that clear communication processes are in place so patient needs are addressed promptly and efficiently. Avoiding duplication of services with comprehensive\, coordinated patient care moves the practice in the direction of the high-quality\, cost-effective outcomes sought by patients and payers alike.\nJoin NCQA faculty and an NCQA 2020-2021 CCE Quality Award Winner for a review of key strategies that can improve transitions of care and a discussion of NCQA's PCMH Care Coordination standards\, causes of ineffective care transitions and best practices for building a care transitions program and improving overall care management.. This webinar will also review case studies and examples of successful care transitions implemented by organizations in multiple settings including rural and urban\, large organizations and solo practices.\n  What You Will Learn\n\nAt the conclusion of this course\, participants will be able to :\nDescribe the Intent Behind the Transition of Care Criteria.Answer Common FAQs for CC 14-19Understand Transitions of Care from a Deep Dive Study.Who Should Attend\n\nCCE's.Consultants.Primary Care Teams.Practice Managers. Health Plans.Physicians.Nurses.PAsFaculty\n\nJennifer Anglin\, MS\, CHES\, PCMH CCEJennifer Anglin is a Manager of Recognition Policy at NCQA.
