This wiki serves as an informal repository of PCMH documentation related to the 2011 and 2014 PCMH Standards. Much of the content here comes from PCC clients who have generously allowed us to use their material. Nothing in this wiki is official PCC documentation and should be used at your own risk.

PCC's Resources for 2011 PCMH Standards PCC's Resources for 2014 PCMH Standards

2011 PCMH Standards

In January 2011, NCQA released new standards for its Patient-Centered Medical Home program, replacing the PPC-PCMH 2008 standards and calling medical practices to be more patient-centered, and to reinforce federal “meaningful use” incentives for primary care practices to adopt health information technology.

PCC has organized the 2011 PCMH Standards in this wiki to provide quick reference to the 2011 standards themselves and, where applicable, documentation showing how PCC functionality applies to individual PCMH factors. In some cases, PCC clients have also generously allowed us to reference their material.

Note: On March 24, 2014 NCQA released a set of new 2014 Standards. As of June 30, 2014 you can no longer purchase the PCMH 2011 survey tools. If you purchased the 2011 survey tools prior to June 30, 2014 you have until March 31, 2015 to submit your application to NCQA based on 2011 standards. If you are interested in achieving PCMH recognition but have not purchased the survey tools prior to 6/30/14, you must use the new 2014 PCMH standards.

2014 PCMH Standards

On March 24, 2014 NCQA released a set of new 2014 Standards. These new standards along with a survey tool can now be reviewed and downloaded from NCQA's web site.

PCC has organized the 2014 PCMH Standards in this wiki to provide quick reference to the 2014 standards themselves and, where applicable, documentation showing how PCC functionality applies to individual PCMH factors. In some cases, PCC clients have also generously allowed us to reference their material.

PCC Prevalidation

In June 2014, PCC applied for official prevalidation with NCQA to identify alignment between PCC software and PCMH standards requirements. The evaluation will result in approved automatic credit (autocredit) scores that are transferable to eligible PCC-client practices submitting for PCMH Recognition. Practices that use PCC's PCMH Prevalidated products will benefit from reduced documentation support, saving time and alleviating some of the administrative burden associated with meeting PCMH survey requirements.

PCC has applied for prevalidation based on 2011 standards. NCQA is currently processing our application and we expect approval to come in late July. Stay tuned for more details. We expect to apply for prevalidation based on 2014 standards in the coming months.
