Last month Blue Cross and Blue Shield of North Carolina (BCBSNC) began offering a Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH) incentive program to support independent primary care practices in achieving PCMH recognition. The program provides a financial incentive upfront to practices that commit to reaching this goal within 15 months. The reward is designed to defray costs associated with attaining PCMH recognition.
PCMH recognition is a mandatory component of the Blue Quality Physician Program (BQPP) that offers enhanced payment to participating practices. Learn more by visiting www.bcbsnc.com/pqpp.
To be eligible to participate in the PCMH incentive program practices must be independent primary care practices (pediatrics, internal medicine, family medicine and general practice) and also be on the BCBSNC standard fee schedule.
If you would like to learn more or have questions, contact BCBSNC at [email protected] or call 919-765-1292.
