Payment Reform to Transform Primary Care: What More Is Needed?

Author

Abstract

Primary care has been struggling in the USA for over 50 years. By the 1960s, the decline in new entrants to general practice led to the Millis Commission report defining essential attributes of the imperiled primary care role, as well as to the establishment of Family Practice (now Family Medicine) as a new specialty dedicated to primary care.
