“There are some particular
conditions where the majority of care needs to be in a specialty
setting, but (those providers) need to be charged with the holistic care
of the patient. That
is the definition of the medical home. To say I am a medical home for
treating just epilepsy is really not serving the entire patient’s
needs.”
- L. Allen Dobson, Jr., M.D., Chief Executive Officer and
President of Community Care of North Carolina, Inc.

"Estimates indicate
that that the percentage of healthcare spending devoted to primary care
in the United States ranges between 5.8 and 7.7 percent, with wide
variation and no
standardized definition about how to calculate this investment."
