In July 2012, the Center for Medicare & Medicaid Innovation (CMMI), an operational unit within the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) created by the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, awarded cooperative agreements to 107 programs proposing innovative ways to improve the quality and lower the cost of care for Medicare, Medicaid, and Children’s Health Insurance Program enrollees. One focus area of these innovations—primary care redesign—seeks to increase and improve the performance of the primary care workforce through enhanced training and education, and to rethink the roles and functions of different types of health care workers. Some of the programs seek to integrate behavioral health into primary care.
