Primary care is a platform, not an office visit.

Primary care is a platform, not an office visit.Primary care is not:

  • the physician,
  • the office visit,
  • the lab,
  • the nurse practitioner or physician’s assistant,
  • a phone call or instant message from a health coach,
  • a capitation or an E&M code,
  • an algorithm,
  • a blood pressure, blood glucose, or daily weight,
  • a discussion board, or
  • a wellness class.

Primary care is how they all fit together. It is the platform.

A platform for maintaining and improving the health (not just the health care) of each patient.

The exciting thing—the platform is only just developing.
