    Patient-Centered Care (PCC) is fast becoming what the world thinks of as the top standard in healthcare. It is designed to center on patient preferences—on what patients themselves desire, require, and value at every step of their medical experience. This essay looks at how PCC functions in different environments, specifically, in typical hospital settings and in modern online primary care (think telehealth). It looks closely at the four key tenets that characterize patient-centered care and explores elements such as multidisciplinary teams, patient empowerment and self-advocacy, and support from family and friends. The article looks closely at all of these elements because they can have a significant impact on not just patient contentment but also overall health and well-being.
