The New Life of e-Patient Dave: Patient-Centered Primary Care: " I've recently been learning about a movement that started forty years ago: the 'medical home.' This is the idea that each of us should have a place we call home, medically. At first it was about keeping all your records in one place, but now it alludes to the reality that 40% of Americans don't even have a doctor's office they can call 'home.'
And the movement asserts that there are real, verifiable, measurable consequences of lacking that continuous care from a primary doctor who knows you."
