"New medical home models
help to make primary care economically viable and transform the work
environment for practitioners into a more rational, acceptable career
lifestyle more attractive to today’s students. Coupled with the
overwhelming evidence that primary care reduces healthcare costs,
reduces all-cause mortality, and reduces the illness burden in
populations across the socioeconomic spectrum, why shouldn’t insurers
help advocate for medical students to choose careers in primary care?"
Alfred F. Tallia, MD, MPH, Professor and Chair, Department of Family
Medicine and Community Health, Robert Wood Johnson Medical School,
University of Medicine and Dentistry of New Jersey
