  • Title: Global health, equity, and primary care.
    Author: Starfield B.
    Journal: J Am Board Fam Med; 2007; 20(6):511-3. PubMed ID: 17954856.
    Abstract:
    Global health provides a special challenge for primary care and general practice, which will become increasingly important in the future as the prevalence of multimorbidity increases with increasing likelihood of survival from acute manifestations of illness, as populations age, and as costs of care increase with increasing availability of technologic interventions. World organizations of primary care physicians need to take up the challenge before it becomes a crisis.
