Abstract:
Primary Health Care (PHC) has been promulgated for over two decades as a global strategy for ensuring basic health care for all people. PHC is characterized by equity, accessibility, availability of resources, social participation, intersectoral community action, and cultural sensitivity. While PHC can be discussed as philosophy or a process, it is critical that PHC be understood as a community focus in health care that differs from a primary care focus on individuals. Capturing PHC components in community-based interventions in order to advance the development of a rigorous research base requ

Abstract:
Background Approximately 90% of the 253 million blind or visually impaired people worldwide live in low- and middle-income countries. Lack of access to eye care is why most people remain or become blind. The World Health Organization Regional Office for Africa (WHO-AFRO) recently launched a primary eye care (PEC) package for sub-Saharan Africa—the WHO-AFRO PEC package—for integration into the health system at the primary health care (PHC) level. This has the potential to increase access to eye care, but feasibility studies are needed to determine the extent to which the health system has the c

PurposeFor over 40 years, Canadian and international bodies have endorsed comprehensive primary health care (PHC), yet very little work has been done to describe how services and programs are delivered within these organizations. Because health equity is now of greater interest to policy makers and the public, it is important to describe an evidence-informed framework for the delivery of integrated and equitable PHC.

Primary Health Care (PHC) plays a vital role in decentralization of health care services. PHC is designed to ensure health care coverage at the community level through the involvement of the community in improving their healthy living. PHC offers treatment and care in continuum that is supported by a facility-linked home- based care system and a referral system. While PHC is global, its operation and functioning in the area of community health provisioning varies across communities.

Ensuring an equitable and sustainable distribution of healthcare resources is crucial to meeting the diverse needs of Brazil’s population. Problem: A key challenge in PHC is accurately forecasting demand, which is vital for optimizing resource allocation and preventing facility overcrowding.

Abstract:
Background: Diabetes mellitus (DM) is one of the top health priorities in Qatar due to its high prevalence of 15.5%, which is projected to increase to 29.7% by 2035. DM management is still challenging despite healthcare advancement, warranting the need for a comprehensive Collaborative Care Model (CCM). Therefore, we aim to evaluate the value of CCM in DM care at a primary healthcare (PHC) setting in Qatar. Methodology: This study was a qualitative exploration of healthcare professionals’ (HCPs’) and patients’ perspectives on the value of CCM provided at the center. Twelve patients and twelve

Abstract:
Background: The expression "health literacy as a superdeterminant of health" indicates the key role of health literacy in shaping and influencing the general health of individuals and communities. eHealth literacy (EHL), in the era of digitization of health systems, is a significant predictor of an individual's health condition, and as a determinant of health, it is important in the analysis of the health system of each country. Previous research has shown that a satisfactory level of EHL is needed in order for citizens to actively participate in making correct health decisions and participate

Abstract:
Renewed interest in the Primary Health Care-PHC agenda is a common element of the majority of recent health system reforms throughout Latin America and the Caribbean-LAC. Strengthening of PHC has been recognized as a promising solution to address the major challenges the Region's health systems face. As governments are making substantive long term investments in PHC oriented healthcare reforms, there is a requirement for accountability and increased transparency and reporting on the results of these initiatives. As a consequence, implementation of PHC strategies needs to be accompanied with me

Abstract:
ince the early 1990s, the Asian Development Bank (ADB) has broadly supported health sector reforms in Mongolia. This paper describes primary health care (PHC) in Mongolia and ADB support in its reform. It highlights results achieved and the lessons drawn that could be useful for future programs in Mongolia and other countries. PHC reform in Mongolia aimed at facilitating a shift from hospital-based curative services toward preventive approaches. It included introducing new management models based on public–private partnerships, increasing the range of services, applying more effective financin

Abstract:
Demand for public hospital emergency departments’ services and care is increasing, placing considerable restraint on their performance and threatens patient safety. Many factors influence such demand including individual characteristics (e.g. perceptions, knowledge, values and norms), healthcare availability, affordability and accessibility, population aging, and internal health system factors (e.g patient flow, discharge process). To alleviate demand, many initiatives have been trialled or suggested, including early identification of at-risk patients, better management of chronic disease to r

Abstract:
This study focuses on two key initiatives spearheaded by the Ministry of Health in Ethiopia, which have contributed to improving gender equality in primary healthcare (PHC): (1) a gender mainstreaming manual; and (2) the PHC response to gender-based violence (GBV). This case was selected as a promising practice because of the significant government leadership and ownership involved in advancing gender integration within a government health system. Based on in-depth analyses of interviews and published materials, it documents the context, a number of enabling factors and challenges encountered,

Abstract:
Noncommunicable diseases (NCDs) have become the major cause of disease burden in the Philippines. In 2019, NCDs accounted for about 70 percent of the 600,000 deaths nationwide; this is projected to increase in the medium to long term. The premature deaths due to NCDs are increasing in a much faster rate in poorest communities while declining in relatively rich areas. The growing burden of NCDs in poor communities have implications on the poverty reduction efforts and economic prospects of the country. Despite the growing threat of NCDs, the Philippine health system remains historically designe
