Access to rural general practice and primary care: time now for more equitable and sustainable solutions?

  • Year: 2004
  • Author: Heard, Sam
  • Journal Name: Australian Journal of Primary Health
  • Journal Number: Vol.10, No.3
  • Country: Australia

In many aspects of health care, primary care provides most of the benefit and almost all of the value. Why then don't we provide this basic service to all Australians?
