  • Title: What is primary care? Developments in Britain since the 1960s.
    Author: Lewis J.
    Journal: Health Care Anal; 1998 Dec; 6(4):324-9. PubMed ID: 10345941.
    Abstract:
    Since 1994, health policy in the UK has focused explicitly on making the NHS 'primary care-led'. However, the meaning of primary is contested by different health professions and by policy-makers. This paper charts the major points of debate since the 1960s and suggests that there are limitations as to what general practice can be expected to deliver in respect of primary care.
