The goal of participation is to test the PCMH model in qualified primary care practices to determine if this model: (1) Provides higher quality and more cost effective care for TRICARE beneficiaries who receive medical care in participating practices and (2) leads to higher satisfaction for patients and providers. The demonstration seeks to compensate medical homes for additional services not traditionally covered through fee for service reimbursement, while creating a viable economic model for health care purchasers and maintaining administrative simplicity. As part of the demonstration, TRICARE, with other payers, will provide additional fixed, semi-annual payments to participating practices for providing documented evidence-based medicine; use of electronic medical records; care coordination; care transition management; collaboration with hospitals to prevent readmissions; and patient coaching; services. These fixed payments will be weighted based on practice size, practice share of Maryland based TRICARE beneficiaries and National Committee on Quality Assurance Patient Centered Medical Home (PPC–PCMH) recognition criteria. TRICARE Prime and Standard beneficiaries will be assigned/attributed to the MMPCMHP demonstration based on current TRICARE Prime enrollment and/or evidence of previous services provided to TRICARE Standard beneficiaries by participating practices. TRICARE for Life beneficiaries will be excluded from the demonstration. TRICARE will continue to pay claims using existing reimbursement methodologies established in 32 CFR part 199. In addition, incentive payments will be made based upon calculated shared savings and measured quality improvements. TMA Defense Health Cost Assessment and Evaluation (DHCAPE) staff will calculate TRICARE beneficiary cost savings based on Maryland Health Care Commission methodology. Pharmacy costs associated with beneficiaries attributed in the demonstration will be measured for informational purposes. Additional information is available at https://mhcc.maryland.gov/pcmh/ and will be available in the TRICARE Operations Manual.
