"This is the Central Okanagan Division of Family Practice’s PMH Engagement Journey. The PMH Engagement Journeys were designed to capture eight divisions' early implementation of the patient medical home (PMH) model of health care. The stories offer a look at the challenges and successes the divisions experienced along their journeys, and the resources they created to engage members and partners around primary care. It is the hope that these stories will act as a resource, support, and source of inspiration for other divisions beginning their journeys to an integrated system of care via the PMH."

"This document examines the financial impact of the work environment of a Nurse Practitioner (NP) on Vancouver Coastal Health’s (VCH) budget. It evaluates the cost effectiveness of having the NP work from a General Practitioners (GP) clinic compared to the community healthcare clinic in the hospital. NPs are working in many different primary care areas, as a specialist or as generalist in a primary care setting. Compared to physicians, patient satisfaction and quality of care have been equal or higher than care provided by physicians. NPs are effective in the reduction of patient unattachment and reduction of emergency department (ED) visits. Although NPs take often more consultation time and sometimes conduct more preventative actions, their work can be comparable or even more effective compared to other providers.
This study hypothesized that the NP’s direct patient time and accessibility increases in the GP clinic, leading to a reduction of ED cost. ED and hospitalization cost of NP patients one year prior to attachment is compared with one year after attachment. Cost effectiveness is calculated by deducting incremental work environment cost by avoided ED and hospitalization cost."
