PCMH Powerpoint Available
"A few weeks back I was asked to present information on the PCMH to medical students attending one of the newer medical schools in the Northeast. The students I spoke to were engaged and savvy beyond my best expectations. The recent White House forum on the PCMH, and subsequent interest in the concept, is likely to increase your opportunities to talk with stakeholders and learners about the concept.”
Dr. Amy McGaha, Assistant Director of the Division of Medical Education, writes to AFMRD members today to encourage you to seek out opportunities to talk with medical students and residents about the PCMH. To help you the AAFP Division of Medical Education makes available a student oriented presentation that can be used by medical school and residency faculty.
To access this presentation for your next talk addressing the Patient Centered Medical Home, simply follow this link.
