Abstract

Purpose: The patient-centered medical home (PCMH) holds promise for improving primary health care delivery, but little is known about its impact on medical education. The purpose of this study was to examine the extent to which physician assistant (PA) students are exposed to elements of the PCMH during the didactic and clinical phases of their education.
