Abstract
[This is an excerpt.] This is the fourth and final report evaluating the four-year Comprehensive Primary Care (CPC) initiative, which was launched by the Center for Medicare & Medicaid Innovation (CMMI) of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) to improve primary care delivery, health care quality, and patient experience, and lower costs. This fourth and final report to CMS covers the full CPC intervention period (October 2012 through December 2016). The report examines: (1) who participated in CPC; (2) the supports practices received; (3) how practices implemented CPC and changed the way they delivered health care; (4) the impacts of CPC on clinicians’ and staff members’ experience; and (5) the impacts of CPC on patient experience, cost, service use, and quality-of-care outcomes for attributed Medicare fee-for-service (FFS) beneficiaries.
