Conference Theme:  Building a Medical Home

You cannot build a home from nothing. You need a plan. You need resources. Sometimes you need the experienced craftsmen and women with special talents and perspectives to show you the potential of what your home can become. The 2008 Conference on Practice Improvement is designed to help any practice setting begin or continue the work to create a medical home in their practice.

The conference seeks to provide a forum for the reflective redesign of practice roles and processes through the team approach. Attendees are encouraged to bring interdisciplinary teams from their practices.

The conference is sponsored by the American Academy of Family Physicians and the Society of Teachers of Family Medicine.
