Crimson Care Collaborative (CCC)

This student-faculty collaborative practice was started by Harvard Medical School students and the Mass General Stoeckle Center for Primary Care Innovation. The practice is a student-administered evening clinic where medical students, mentored by faculty members, provide care for patients who do not have a primary care doctor. In addition, the practice provides evening urgent-care access to patients of Mass General’s Internal Medicine Associates practice. By building the practice model from the ground up, students have been involved in all aspects of operations, financial planning and social services for the practice.
