A care plan is based on the acute, chronic and preventive care needs of a patient and can include patient preferences and goals; treatment goals and status; assessment of barriers and strategies to address them; current problems and medications; allergies; and a self-care plan. This criterion requires practices to document a patient-centered view of the care plan and share the plan with the patient. A care plan does not need to be re-created at each visit but must be reviewed and updated as needed.
