This Week is National Primary Care Week

This health observance began in 1994 in response to a shortage of primary care physicians. The goal is to bring awareness to the health care field of the interdisciplinary and comprehensive practice that primary care has to offer.

This year’s observance celebrates Innovations in Primary Care.
