Primary Care

What is Primary Medical Care?

Primary care is the “medical home” for a patient. Primary Care ideally provides the integration and continuity of health care.

All family physicians, most pediatricians,
and internists are in primary care.

•Primary Care is the first-contact care for persons with any undiagnosed sign, symptom, or health concern;
•Primary Care is comprehensive care for the person which is not organ – or problem- specific;
•Primary Care Provides on-going continuous care for the patient;
•Primary Care includes coordinating all other health services as they relate to the patient’s care.

 

Why a Primary Care Physician?

Physicians who deliver comprehensive
primary medical care are uniquely trained in how to:


•Recognize early symptoms of serious disease;
•Distinguish between self-limited illnesses and problems requiring further medical intervention;
•Perform time-efficient histories, physicals, and diagnoses carried out at the quick pace required in most ambulatory care settings;
•Provide screening and counseling to prevent disease;
•Communicate with a variety of patients in a long-term relationship;
•Access and utilize social and financial resources for patients.

Experience You can Trust

Primary care is an important form of health access for patients. A 2009 report by the New England Healthcare Institute determined that an increased demand on primary care by older, sicker patients and decreased supply of primary care practitioners has led to a crisis in primary care delivery. This has resulted in a vast number of facilities using less qualified personnel such as nurses to provide healthcare.
