Participating Practices

We’re working toward an advanced system of care where patient outcomes and provider payments are aligned. Primary care is essential to that model.

Participating primary care practices can be transformed by:

  • implementing evidence-based care;
  • adopting Electronic Medical Records (EMR) with e-prescribing systems;
  • creating disease management supports; and
  • participating in quality measurement and improvement activities.

Governance

Practice representatives participate in Adirondack Medical Home Initiative (AMHI) governance through the Governance Committee.

AMHI is organized into three geographic “pods”

  • Tri-Lakes (Saranac Lake and surrounding communities); also known as Pod 1. Director: Bob Cawley, Chief Information Officer, AHI.
  • Lake George (Lake George and surrounding communities, including Long Lake and Newcomb); also known as Pod 2. Director: Cynthia Nassivera-Reynolds, VP, Transformation and Clinical Quality, Hudson Headwaters Health Network.
  • Northern Adirondack (Plattsburgh and surrounding communities); also known as Pod 3. Director: Karen Ashline, Associate Vice President, Adirondacks ACO Northern Medical Home.
