The Idaho Primary Care Association, an organization representing the states' community health centers and their patients, has been awarded a $300,000 three-year grant from the Cambia Health Foundation to facilitate the transition of 20 community health center clinics into patient-centered medical homes.
Along with the grant money, Idaho Primary Care Association staff will provide support to the clinics to improve the quality of care they provide as they transition to PCMHs.
"Through this grant and our partnership with the Idaho Primary Care Association, our goal is to help shift Idaho's healthcare system to a patient-centered medical home model and improve health outcomes by ensuring patients have access to the high-quality, coordinated care they need," Scott Kreiling, a Cambia Health Foundation board member, said in the news release.
