Learning Collaborative. In addition to providing comprehensive, quality care, a second goal of the OB Medical Home Initiative is to provide care that meets the unique needs of each member. Prior experience in implementing the Initiative demonstrates the efficacy of OB medical home sites learning from each other. To facilitate this process, the HMOs and clinic sites must identify and/or develop and participate in at least one collaborative learning opportunity per year. Such opportunities must address identified needs of the clinics serving as OB medical homes and the members they serve. These forums shall be described and reported in the required HMO annual report.
