I had doubts about the concept of a Medical Home as a solution to the primary care crisis from the first time I read about it and you would have thought my spleen was fully vented in this verbose posting but...When I learned that the RUC would be making the payments rules my doubt titer went off the chart . Now when I read about how one such program is being introduced I can only say "you have got to be kidding me". Thanks to Kevin for the reference.
Dr. Douglas Farrago of Placebo Journal fame tells us about a plan in his home state that is recruiting docs for a program that cannot disclose how you will be paid or on what criteria you will be judged but there a lot of forms to fill out. That is an offer you do not want to pass up.

I suspect that Doctors really should pass on this opportunity, which sounds like a kind of sanctioned phishing scam. It also stikes me odd that all this attention on the supply side is ignoring the demand needs of patient/customers.
