We make it easier for you to access day-to-day health services throughout every stage of life and in every corner of the province.
Primary care is the front door into our health system. It’s the essential conversations with your family doctor about regular screening, routine health maintenance, prescription renewals, medication management, family planning, and everything in between.
Ensure every Albertan has access to high-quality primary care services across the province.
Incentivize care models that improve health outcomes and prioritize patient experience.
Support integrated teams of family physicians, nurse practitioners and pharmacists to provide the best care possible.
Easier access to family doctors and primary care providers means fewer trips to the emergency department.
A more modern, responsive and unified system that allows our health experts to focus on Albertans.
