The Importance of Primary Care
Manage episode 304965614 series 2816013
Do you have a primary care provider? Do you have a good relationship with them? The Docs discuss the importance of a primary care provider and how the trajectory of the COVID-19 pandemic may have changed if people had a trusting relationship with their PCP.
The Docs talk about how difficult it has been to convince some of their patients and friends and family to take the COVID vaccine. Medical Mistrust (Listen to Episode 3) has made it difficult for the Black community to have a trusted source for medical information about the vaccine. Additionally, Black patients seek out regular primary care at two-thirds the rate of white patients, preferring instead Emergency visits and urgent care. This lack of relationship compounds the health disparities Black patients already face by reducing the amount of consistent care they can receive from their PCP.
