Organized, evidence-based care (OEBC) is care that is based on scientific evidence and planned and delivered so that the team optimizes the health of their entire panel of patients. OEBC in a Patient-Centered Medical Home (PCMH) consists of designing each encounter to meet a patient's preventive and chronic illness needs, using planned interactions and ensuring appropriate follow-up care. Evidence-based guidelines are embedded into daily clinical practice as well as shared with patients. High-risk patients are identified to determine they are receiving appropriate care management services.
