Core offering

Care Transformation Collaborative of Rhode Island (CTC-RI) is a nonprofit 501c3 healthcare collaborative that supports primary care practices across Rhode Island through Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH) transformation, multi-payer payment reform, integrated behavioral health, and practice facilitation. It convenes primary care providers, federally qualified health centers (FQHCs), health plans, and state agencies to design and implement practice transformation and population health programs.

Product overview

Care Transformation Collaborative of Rhode Island (CTC-RI) is a healthcare transformation organization rather than a traditional product company. Its offerings consist of coordinated programs and initiatives aimed at strengthening primary care delivery in Rhode Island. The core programs include the Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH) model and its pediatric counterpart PCMH-Kids, which provide the foundational care delivery framework. These are supported by Integrated Behavioral Health services and Community Health Teams that extend care coordination capabilities. Cross-cutting programs include the Electronic Clinical Data Exchange for health information interoperability, various learning collaboratives and ECHO series (including DULCE and Pediatric Anxiety), the Annual Conference, and CME coursework. The organization also runs specific initiatives like the Primary Care Workforce Taskforce, Asthma Training, Healthy Tomorrows, and Pharmacy QI Initiatives. Together, these programs form an integrated approach to primary care transformation rather than a platform with discrete modular products.

• Oregon Patient-Centered Primary Care Home Program: Oregon's state-recognized PCMH program offering tiered practice recognition, technical assistance, and multi-payer alignment — directly comparable to CTC-RI's PCMH recognition and practice facilitation model.
