Principal Care Management (PCM)

Principal Care Management (PCM) focuses on eligible Medicare patients with one high-risk or complex chronic condition that requires ongoing management.

Frequently Asked Questions

Chronic Care Management (CCM) is a Medicare care-management service designed for patients with two or more chronic conditions expected to last at least 12 months. It provides structured support and care coordination beyond routine office visits.

Principal Care Management (PCM) is a Medicare care-management service focused on patients with one high-risk or complex chronic condition requiring ongoing management, care planning, and monitoring by clinical staff or physicians.

CCM is designed for patients with multiple (2+) chronic conditions, whereas PCM is tailored for patients with a single complex or high-risk chronic condition. Both programs aim to improve care coordination and outcomes beyond routine office visits.

Eligible patients must have two or more chronic conditions expected to last at least 12 months (or until death) that place the patient at significant risk of decline or functional breakdown. Practices should check current Medicare and payer guidelines for specific eligibility criteria.
