Abstract

Two major challenges led to our team’s developing the CARINOS Model. The first was the limitations in the care we experienced after becoming a National Committee for Quality Assurance (NCQA)-recognized Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH) and Geriatric Care Medical Neighborhood. The second, and the more pressing challenge, was the inability to see our patients in the clinic due to the COVID-19 Pandemic. These two challenges are described in detail below.
