Total partnership for primary health care provision: a proposed model: Part I.
Presents the first of a two part paper, based on a study which examined the dynamics of primary health care provision. The study examined 49 general practices in the Kirklees area, UK, through a detailed questionnaire mode. The response was 67 per cent covering the views of 106 doctors. To capture further input for the study, an in-depth seminar with nine doctors from a range of practices was conducted. Examines internal factors for managing general practices and the levels of competence in addressing financial, strategic, quality issues and whether general practices get involved in any external activities for new learning and benchmarking. Comprehensively covers common areas of concern and areas where expertise may be inadequate or lacking.
