Abstract

Viewing primary care as a niche in a medical system is incorrect for the US. Its role should be as a system filter, to be cost-effective, and to be accessible to people. Its position should be as a central hub in healthcare systems. It is important that health systems realize the essential integrative function of primary care. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
