A qualitative study about the public's perception of primary care providers
Previous reports suggested that the public might be confused by the different types of HCPs they might encounter during a primary care visit. Participants identified specific characteristics that are important when they are choosing their PCP. A direct, coordinated marketing campaign may be needed to educate the public and reduce confusion about different types of PCPs, how they contribute to safe and high-quality care, and ensure preference-concordant care.
