High-quality primary care is the foundation of the health care
system. It provides continuous, person-centered, relationship-based
care that considers the needs and preferences of individuals,
families, and communities. Without access to high-quality primary
care, minor health problems can spiral into chronic disease,
chronic disease management becomes difficult and uncoordinated,
visits to emergency departments increase, preventive care lags, and
health care spending soars to unsustainable levels. Unequal access
to primary care remains a concern, and the COVID-19 pandemic
amplified pervasive economic, mental health, and social health
disparities that ubiquitous, high-quality primary care might have
reduced. Primary care is the only health care component where an
increased supply is associated with better population health and
more equitable outcomes. For this reason, primary care is a common
good, which makes the strength and quality of the country's primary
care services a public concern. Implementing High-Quality Primary
Care: Rebuilding the Foundation of Health Care puts forth an
evidence-based plan with actionable objectives and recommendations
for implementing high-quality primary care in the United States.
The implementation plan of this report balances national needs for
scalable solutions while allowing for adaptations to meet local
needs. Table of Contents Front Matter Abstract Summary 1 A New
