Overview of Findings• Sample: 11,547 primary care physicians surveyed in Australia, Canada, Germany,

Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Sweden, Switzerland, United Kingdom, and United States

Key US findings:

• Many US primary care practices report that they are not well prepared to manage patients with complex needs

• US ranks last on primary care practice capacity to provide care after-hours (evenings, weekends, and holidays)

• US shows significant progress on electronic medical record adoption and ranks first for primary care practices giving patients electronic access to information from their medical record

• US primary care doctors report significant gaps in information flow and care coordination with specialists, hospitals, home care, and community social services providers

• More than one-half of US doctors say time spent on insurance issues is a major problem

• US doctors are least likely to say health system works well

• Managing complex patients requires re-thinking primary care, including:

– Multidisciplinary teams and case managers

– Email access and after-hours care

– Home visits

• Policies and payment incentives need to be aligned to encourage care coordination and delivery system integration

• In addition to adoption of electronic medical records, greater interoperability and use of clinical decision support is needed

• It’s important for policymakers to hear from doctors on the frontlines

• As the Affordable Care Act gains further traction, the reforms underway— coverage expansion, additional support for primary care, medical homes, value-based purchasing—have the potential to be transformative

• But, re-designing delivery systems to better care for patients with complex conditions will need continuous iteration and evaluation to understand what works best

• Looking to other countries offers an opportunity for valuable cross-national lessons to be learned
