How Primary Care Contributes to Health Systems

Abstract

Margaret Elizabeth Kruk*

Since researchers were able to distinguish primary care from other components of the health services delivery system, evidence of the healthpromoting impact of primary care has been mounting. Regardless of whether the care is characterised by a supply of primary care physicians, a relationship with a provider of primary care, or the receipt of crucial aspects of primary care, this research demonstrates that primary care helps avoid disease and death. Primary care, as opposed to specialised care, is associated with a more equitable distribution of health in communities, according to the research, which is supported by both cross-national and intra-national studies. The mechanisms via which primary care enhances health have been identified, offering strategies for enhancing general health and minimising inequalities. Our health and the health of the earth are intricately linked. Our quality of life and well-being are influenced by the resources we use for breathing, eating, sheltering, healing, and recreation.
