About Us

Our Center for Innovation in Family and Community Health (CIFCH) proposes that we re-emphasize the human aspects of the patient and the physician to refresh the PCMH model into a more meaningful one that we like to refer to as the Human Centered Health Home (HCHH).  The human to human dyad of the patient- physician relationship allows "neighborly" discourse that protects the pair from some of the distractions and intensity of the Medical Industrial Complex (MIC).  Their mutual respect allows a better understanding of the context of each other's lives, allowing a better focus on the work at hand.
