National and Local Efforts to Strengthen Primary Care
Thurs., May 30, 12-1 p.m. ET | Virtual
Primary care is the one medical specialty that reliably demonstrates improvement in health outcomes, health equity, and health care costs, yet there has been a noted decline in primary care financing, capacity, performance, equity, and patient access. How can we strengthen primary care to address these documented declines? Join the Harvard Medical School Center for Primary Care in welcoming Barbra Rabson, Dr. Ryan Schwarz, and Dr. Judith Steinberg who will discuss lessons learned in advancing policy and programs.
