In 2006, the CAPP Advisory Council recommended that CAPP collect best practices in (1) the use of IT and the EMR in the care of chronic conditions; (2) capabilities to provide feedback and guidance on the overall performance of a practice and its physicians; and (3) capabilities to provide patient-centered care. The study summarizes the current capabilities across the CAPP groups and examines the relationship between the degree of integration and use of care management processes.
