Rethinking Primary Care Delivery Models: Can Integrated Primary Care Teams Improve Care Experience?
Integrated Primary Care Teams (IPCTs) have four key characteristics (intensive interdisciplinary practice; advanced nursing practice with an expanded role; group practice; increased proximity and availability) aimed at strengthening primary care in Quebec, Canada.
