Abstract: | Primary health care is a form of front-line medicine comparable to a valve with a filter. If either is blocked or weak, large amounts of relatively unimportant and trivial material will overflow, causing confusion and delays in the secondary channels. Changes in front-line medicine have repercussions in the secondary and tertiary health care sectors. In this article the author outlines the realities the primary health care is facing at the turn of the new millennium. |
