Medical home 101: the pharmacist's role in this growing patient-centered care model

Abstract

The medical-home model is an innovative way to provide patient-centered care using a team approach. For senior care pharmacists who thrive on teamwork and embrace culture change, this can be a rewarding practice model. The challenge is finding organizations and physicians employing the medical-home model who understand the value of having a pharmacist on this team. However, once pharmacists get their foot in the door of the medical home, they can have a significant impact.
