NCQA Public Comment on Patient Experiences
NCQA seeks public comment on a core set of topics on patient experiences for evaluating practices that want to serve as medical homes. All topics are based on patient surveys/experiences of care.
A medical home is a medical office or clinic where a team of health professionals work together to provide a new, expanded type of care to patients. Having a medical home feels like having an “old–style,” traditional family doctor, but with a team of professionals that uses modern knowledge and technology to provide the best possible care for you in one location.
NCQA will consider the recommended topics of patient experience as we develop the next version of our evaluation criteria. Members of the public are invited to comment through March 9.
Please tell us what topics of patient experiences you think NCQA should include when evaluating medical homes. Here’s how to do it:
-- Use the mouse on your computer to move the five items you think are most important to the High Priority box.
-- Use the mouse to move the five items you think are least important to the Low Priority box.
-- Move the mouse over each topic of patient experience to see examples.
