Implementing systemwide dissemination of feedback reports to primary care physicians in an integrated delivery system may be associated with changes in medical resource use.

Significant additional outreach and engagement strategies and incentives are likely required to increase adoption and ongoing use of health risk assessment tools among target populations.

This study investigated healthcare quality, utilization, and costs among patients with common chronic illnesses in a patient-centered medical home prototype redesign.

In an integrated delivery system among patients with diabetes, there was significantly less risk factor communication reported during between-visit encounters compared with in-person visits.

An n - 1 deterministic linkage strategy was used successfully to merge dental and medical data from a healthcare plan and a dental insurance carrier.

A 12-month evaluation of a patient-centered medical home demonstration indicated improvement in quality of care without an increase in overall costs.
