Multipaper Abstract: The Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH) has been identified as a model of high-quality primary care and is being gradually adopted by practices nationwide. In Massachusetts, the PCMH has been in the process of implementation in 46 primary care practices. Our team at the Center for Health Policy and Research (University of Massachusetts Medical School) is currently evaluating this initiative. A central question of the evaluation is “How and to what extent do practices become a medical home”? This evaluation utilizes a multi-level mixed methods design to answer this question. This session will present how the evaluators are collecting and analyzing both qualitative and quantitative data. Information will be shared about how data from various sources, including surveys, interviews and focus groups, and various stakeholders, such as Medical Home Facilitators and practice staff, are being integrated to answer this evaluation question.#MixedMethodsEvaluation #2012Conference
