This report presents findings from the evaluation of CMS’s first multi-payer patient-centered medical home (PCMH) demonstration, which ran in eight states from 2011-2014. Participating states designed their own practice entry requirements, demonstration payments models, and technical assistance for practices – making this demonstration essentially eight demonstrations in one. Medicare’s payments were capped at $10 PBPM, on average; Medicaid and private payers offered similar payments.
