Synopsis

The purpose of this program is to strengthen primary care and the workforce by establishing fellowship programs to train community-based practicing primary care physician and/or physician assistant champions to lead health care transformation and enhance teaching in community-based settings. Characteristics of transformed health care delivery systems identified by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) include: • Providers across the care continuum participate in integrated or virtually integrated delivery models, • Care is coordinated across all providers and settings, • High level of patient engagement and quantifiable results on patient experience, • Providers leverage the use of health information technology to improve quality, • Providers perform at the top of their license and board certification, • Population health measures are integrated into the delivery system, and • Data are used to drive health system processes.[1] HRSA also recognizes addressing social determinants of health as a characteristic of transformed health care delivery systems.
