| Creating Medical Homes for Young Adults with Special Healthcare Needs |
The PAFP Foundation Medical Home Project
Seventeen family medicine practices from across the state serve as medical home demonstration sites. Those physicians and staff, with the support of the Medical Home Coordinator and an Advisory Council, strengthen their practices' capacity to support adults with special healthcare needs in a medical home.
