What is Primary Care
In defining primary care, it is necessary to describe the nature of services provided to patients, as well as to identify
the primary care providers. The domain of primary care includes the primary care physician, other physicians who include
some primary care services in their practices, and some non-physician providers. However, central to the concept of primary
care is the patient. Therefore, such definitions are incomplete without including a description of the primary care practice.
