Multi-Payer Primary Care Practice Model

The New York State advanced primary care initiative, sponsored by the New York State
Department of Health, seeks to support practices’ efforts to achieve NYS Patient
Centered Medical Home (NYS PCMH) designation with technical assistance and
coaching support for practices. In support of this initiative, four Capital Region-Hudson
Valley health plans, CDPHP, Empire BC*, MVP Health Care and The Empire
Plan are initiating a voluntary, multi-payer collaboration. This collaboration targets
small and medium size primary care practices with a payment model that facilitates
both transformation to advanced primary care and ongoing efforts to improve patient
outcomes.
