Primary Care Research Centre

About us

Good primary care is associated with better health outcomes, lower costs, and greater equity in health.

Good primary care forms the foundation of the UK National Health Service (NHS). 90% of NHS contacts happen in primary care, with general practice alone providing over 300 million consultations a year. 网络彩票APP下载_澳客彩票网-官方游戏, Primary Care Research Centre (PCRC) is an international centre of excellence for research in primary care.
