1. Synopsis of CCNC Initiatives
PTN
CCPN
HHN
The Heart Health Now program helps small and medium-sized primary care practices improve prevention of cardiovascular disease (CVD).
This is accomplished by building systems of care which integrate best practices, provide access to population health management tools, and optimize the use of EHRs for value-based payment models.
Practice Transformation Network is a 4-year CMS sponsored program that prepares NC and SC providers for success in a value-based environment.
Clinicians will achieve sustained improvement in practice efficiency and quality of care, demonstrate cost savings and reductions in avoidable hospital use.  
Patients will use more preventive services, engage in better management of chronic conditions, have better health outcomes, and report greater satisfaction with care received
The Community Care Physician Network is a collaborative, non-exclusive Clinically Integrated Network of independent healthcare providers.
The CCPN will enhance the clinical quality and efficiencies of its participating providers, broaden primary care access for our Medicaid patients, and help participating clinicians to succeed in a value-based healthcare system 1 2 3
