Primary care in the twenty first century

“…….the result of a three year research programme examining new organisational developments across thirty three countries. The timeframe is the post Millenium period and a shared characteristic of these countries is a ‘modernising’ policy framework for nationwide health systems reform. As a result in each country novel forms of primary care  are associated with innovations in governance and regulation, public health stewardship and participation, and, in particular, in new configurations and processes for interprofessional and inter-agency collaboration. The selected countries stretch right across the globe, although, to the surprise of the Warwick University research team more ‘transferable learning’ was discerned for the United Kingdom in Latin American states than anywhere else and nine of these are included in the book’s detailed case studies.
