Summary
This presentation describes the Jefferson Plaza Family Health Home model which offers preventative physical and behavioral healthcare to the entire family in one location. An evaluation of clinical, operational, and economic components are presented. The outcomes explored in this presentation are instrumental in describing the impact this type of care delivery has on the population it serves. The challenges and future directions of this clinic seek to contribute to the growing body of knowledge around health home implementation, design, and sustainability. The wholistic approach of health homes may offer an opportunity to transform the healthcare system and advance the public health impact of the primary care setting. Presenters will discuss virtual/telehealth options that integrated practices may wish to employ for optimizing integration.
