The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine (NASEM) recently released a landmark report – Implementing High-Quality Primary Care: Rebuilding the Foundation of Health Care. This report puts forth an evidence-based plan with actionable objectives and recommendations for implementing high-quality primary care in the United States. This is the first report in 25 years that addresses what is needed to produce a robust primary care workforce, and it builds upon the recommendations from the 1996 Institute of Medicine report, “Primary Care: America’s Health in a New Era.” With significant contributions by committee co-chair Bob Phillips, MD, MSPH, founding Executive Director of ABFM’s Center for Professionalism & Value in Health Care, the implementation plan balances national needs for scalable solutions while allowing for adaptations to meet local needs.
