Patient Provider Agreement Primary Care
A Patient-Centered Medical Home is a partnership between a patient and their physician.
A Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH) is a system of care in which a team of health professionals work together to provide your entire healthcare needs. You, the patient, are the most important part of a patient centered medical home. When you take an active role in your health and work closely with us, you can be sure that you’re getting the care you need.
We trust you as our patient to:
- Ask questions, share your feelings and be part of your care
- Be honest about your history, symptoms, and other important information about your health
- Tell your doctor about any changes in your health and wellbeing
- Take all of your medicine and follow your doctor’s advice
- Make healthy decisions about your daily habits and lifestyle
- Prepare for and keep scheduled visits or reschedule visits in advance whenever possible
- Call your doctor first with all problems, unless it is a medical emergency
- Consult your doctor before going to a specialist
As your Patient Centered Medical Home physician I agree to:
- Explain diseases, treatments, and results in an easy-to-understand way
- Listen to your feelings and questions to help you make decisions about your care
- Keep your treatments, discussions, and records private
- Provide 24 hour access to medical care and same day appointments, whenever possible
- Provide instructions on how to meet your health care needs when the office is not open
- Give you clear directions about medicines and other treatments
