Benchmarking primary care provider experiences
Our benchmarking focus is on understanding provider needs, capabilities and experiences (with PHNs and others); and how these impact on consumer health journeys. We know that well-designed services, delivered by well-informed providers; typically lead to better consumer experiences, improved health outcomes and cost-effective healthcare resource use.
