PCC COORDINATES CARE FOR VULNERABLE ADULTS IN CENTRAL OHIO.
PHYSICIANS AND OTHER EXPERTS DEDICATED TO OPTIMIZING THE HEALTH OF THOSE MOST VULNERABLE (ANY PERSON WHO HAS HEALTHCARE CHALLENGES DUE TO INDIVIDUAL BARRIERS) IN CENTRAL OHIO IS THE MISSION OF PHYSICIANS CARECONNECTION (PCC). ESTABLISHED IN 1993 BY THE COLUMBUS MEDICAL ASSOCIATION TO ENABLE HEALTH CARE PROFESSIONALS AND VOLUNTEERS TO PROVIDE QUALITY HEALTHCARE FOR THOSE MOST IN NEED IN OUR COMMUNITY; PCC HAS ACHIEVED SUCCESSFUL HEALTHCARE OUTCOMES FOR HIGH RISK POPULATIONS THROUGH OUR UNIQUE MODEL OF PATIENT CENTERED CARE COORDINATION. PCC IS THE UMBRELLA ORGANIZATION FOR PHYSICIANS FREE CLINIC, THE COLORECTAL CANCER SCREENING INITIATIVE, THE EYE HEALTH INITIATIVE, DENTIST CARECONNECTION, AND STEPONE FOR A HEALTHY PREGNANCY. PCC'S NETWORK OF COMMUNITY PARTNERS INCLUDES PRIMARY CARE PHYSICIANS, SUBSPECIALISTS, DENTISTS, AND NURSES AND 13 HOSPITALS. PCC SPECIALIZES IN HEALTH AND RELATED SOCIAL NEEDS THAT DIRECTLY INFLUENCE THE QUALITY OF LIFE FOR PEOPLE WHO ARE VULNERABLE. BY PROVIDING PATIENT CENTERED CARE COORDINATION, OUR GOAL IS TO MAKE CONNECTIONS TO RESOURCES FOR PEOPLE SO THAT THEY CAN IMPROVE THEIR LIVES. FOR EVERY $1 WE RECEIVE IN FUNDING, WE COORDINATE $5 IN CARE.
ACCESS TO DENTAL CARE CONTINUES TO BE A CHALLENGE UNTREATED DENTAL PROBLEMS CAN LEAD TO OR EXACERBATE SERIOUS HEALTH PROBLEMS. WE OPERATE A FREE DENTAL CLINIC ON THE 2ND, 3RD, AND 4TH MONDAY EVENINGS OF EACH MONTH. IN 2019, OUR VOLUNTEERS PERFORMED SINGLE TOOTH EXTRACTIONS, PROVIDED RESTORATIVE SERVICES (FILLINGS AND CLEANINGS), AND DENTURES FOR 359 PATIENTS. THE VALUE OF THIS CARE IS OVER $166,000. HAD THESE PATIENTS BEEN SEEN IN THE HOSPITAL EMERGENCY ROOM, IT WOULD HAVE COST THIS COMMUNITY OVER $355,000 AND THEY WOULD STILL HAVE NOT BEEN TREATED BECAUSE OUR EMERGENCY ROOMS DO NOT PROVIDE DENTAL SERVICES. THESE PATIENTS WOULD HAVE BEEN GIVEN A PAIN RELIEVER AND AN ANTIBIOTIC.
WE REDUCE BARRIERS TO ACCESSING CARE FOR LOW INCOME, UNINSURED PATIENTS BY SUBSIDIZING TRANSPORTATION SERVICES, MEDICAL INTERPRETERS, AUDIOLOGY AND OPTICAL SUPPLIES, AND ACCESS TO AFFORDABLE PRESCRIPTION MEDICATION. COORDINATION OF THESE SERVICES HAS LED TO A NO SHOW RATE FOR OFFICE VISITS OF LESS THAN 6%. TYPICAL NO SHOW RATES FOR THIS PATIENT POPULATION ARE AS MUCH AS 30%.
