We function as your primary care medical home.
UPMC Children’s Community Pediatrics is certified as a Primary Care Medical Home from The Joint Commission. This accreditation demonstrates our compliance with the highest national standards for safety and quality of care. We strive to continually improve the patient experience at each and every visit.
By functioning as your Primary Care Medical Home (PCMH), UPMC CCP puts your child at the center of health care decision-making. Your chosen pediatrician, along with the rest of our office staff, will work in partnership with your family to coordinate and personalize care. Your provider will also work with you and your child to establish a unique care management plan. What else does a PCMH offer your family?

As a PCMH, there is a certain level of responsibility placed on our patients. We are committed to your care, and we need to know that you are committed to us. Ask your practice staff about your patient responsibilities.
As always, keep in mind that you have the right to change your child’s primary care clinician, seek a second opinion or visit with a specialist whenever you deem necessary.
