Paying doctors more ....

Interesting article in the NY TImes about a pilot project centered around a medical home concept.  The idea being that the insurers would reimburse family practice and primary care practicioners to actively manage their chronically ill patients at a higher level and the docs would also receive a subsidy to bring their office technology up to speed.
