Spanish Peaks Family Clinic in Walsenburg is the first primary care clinic in Colorado owned by a Critical Access Hospital to receive the prestigious recognition as a Level 1 Patient Centered Medical Home by the National Committee on Quality Assurance (NCQA).  Spanish Peaks Family Clinic is one of only three non-urban clinics in Colorado to receive this designation, and will be the only federally designated Rural Health Clinic (RHC)  in Colorado with this recognition upon completion of RHC designation process.  The providers and staff at Spanish Peaks Family Clinic have been working with staff at the Colorado Rural Health Center for the past year and a half to change the way they approach patient care.  The designation at a Level 1 Patient Centered Medical Home is a reflection of Spanish Peaks Family Clinic’s efforts in transforming the care provided to the people of Walsenburg, Huerfano County, and the surrounding area.  Spanish Peaks is planning to continue to improve their patient focus over the next few months, and is looking forward to apply for the highest NCQA recognition, Level 3 Patient Centered Medical Home recognition, in 2011.
