 | | This study focused on physicians' assessments of changes in the scope of care provided by primary care physicians and their assessments of the appropriateness of the scope of the care that primary care physicians are expected to provide. |  | | This article outlined the development of primary care and stated that basic core values passed down by tradition, that included all key relationships in primary care with patients, with colleagues in practices, and with the local communities must be guarded by primary care practitioners. |  | | They describe the care provided to the patient, the system of providing such care, the types of physicians whose role in the system is to provide primary care, and the role of other physicians, and non-physicians, in providing such care. |

| | Integrated Primary Care: Combining Behavioral Health and Primary Medical Care |
 | | Because the vast majority of patients in primary care have either a physical ailment that is affected by stress, problems maintaining healthy lifestyles or a psychological disorder, it is clinically effective and cost effective to make behavioral health providers part of primary medical care. |  | | Integrated Primary Care combines medical and behavioral health services to more fully address the spectrum of problems that patients bring to primary medical care. |  | | In Canada, there is an organization similar to CFHA promoting mental health in primary care called Shared Care. |
