Patient Perspectives of Early Interventions for Healthy Ageing in General Practice: A Qualitative Study
Heather Block et al.
What the paper says
Patients perceive their general practice enables care and management of chronic conditions for healthy ageing. There is a need for proactive healthy ageing interventions including increased uptake of chronic disease management Medicare Benefit Schedule (MBS) items into routine general practice care. Primary care policies should address multidisciplinary team-based care to facilitate optimal comprehensive care for healthy ageing. Further exploration and strategies to address barriers to proactive, comprehensive care for chronic conditions earlier in the ageing trajectory are needed.
