Primary care is the foundation of our health care system. Yet more and more people report not having a regular place for care. In the forthcoming second annual Primary Care Scorecard, Robert Graham Center researchers give five reasons why access to primary care is worsening.

 

Join the Milbank Memorial Fund and The Physicians Foundation on February 28, at 12 p.m. ET, for a webinar on how the nation and the states are performing on primary care workforce, financing, training and research funding measures — and how challenges within each of these areas contribute to poor access to primary care.  

The Physicians Foundation’s President, Gary Price, MD, will give opening remarks ahead of a panel discussion moderated by Frances Stead Sellers of The Washington Post. The panel will include:

·     Rachel Block, Program Officer, Milbank Memorial Fund
·     Margaret Flinter, APRN, PhD, Vice President and Clinical Director, Community Health Centers, Inc.
·     Yalda Jabbarpour, MD, Director, The Robert Graham Center
·     Kyu Rhee, MD, President and CEO, National Association of Community Health Centers
