Home-based Primary Care Program
HBPC programs provide appropriate care (primary, urgent, or palliative) to high-risk, medically vulnerable elderly patients, often suffering multiple chronic conditions, when and where they need it. This patient-centric, continuous care model delivers clinical, economic, and human benefits such as
- facilitating timely interventions when chronic conditions worsen and preempting avoidable emergency department visits and hospitalizations
- alleviating social stressors that contribute to poor health
- comforting patients by giving them loving care and letting them know they’re not alone.
This program is also for Veterans who are isolated, or their caregiver is experiencing a burden.
Home-Based Primary Care can be used in combination with other Home and Community-Based Services.
