Primary Care Physician Shortage
Due to physician shortages, burnout and workforce challenges, financial barriers, and a fragmented healthcare system, millions of Americans struggle to find timely and affordable primary care. Lack of preventive screening, early intervention, and ongoing management of chronic conditions negatively impact health outcomes and drive up costs. With an aging population and a growing demand for primary care, it is critical to create more access to timely, comprehensive, and patient-centered primary care and clinical programs.
