contact for medical concerns and provides
continuity of care.
Studies have shown that patients who receive
regular primary care have better health outcomes
and lower healthcare costs.

medical knowledge and skills, including diagnostic
reasoning, communication, and interpersonal
skills.
They must complete a medical degree and
residency training, and be licensed by their state's
medical board.
Continuing education is also essential for general
physicians to stay up-to-date on the latest medical
developments and advancements.

They must also navigate changes in healthcare policy and technology while maintaining a patient-centered approach to
care.

outcomes in primary care include
increasing access to care, improving
care coordination, and promoting
patient engagement and education.
