ADMINISTRATION AND FUNDING
Practices need staff and financial support, advocacy, governance, leadership, and management in order to function as part of the community and deliver exceptional care.
RECOMMENDATION #1
Governance, administrative, and management roles and responsibilities are clearly defined and supported in each PMH.
RECOMMENDATION #2
Sufficient system funding is available to support PMHs, including the clinical, teaching, research, and administrative roles of all members of PMH teams.
RECOMMENDATION #3
Blended remuneration models that best support team-based, patient-partnered care in a PMHshould be considered to incentivize the desired approach.
RECOMMENDATION #4
Future federal/provincial/territorial health care funding agreements provide appropriate funding mechanisms that support PMH priorities, including preventive care, population health, electronic records, community-based care, and access to medications, social services, and appropriate specialist and acute care.
