Consensus Reporting Items for Studies in Primary Care (CRISP) is a research-reporting guideline developed for primary care. Because no widely accepted procedure exists for translating research-reporting guidelines, the authors developed the CRISP Translation Guide to facilitate the translation of research-reporting guidelines and related documents to support worldwide dissemination and application of primary care research results.

This study examined whether continuity of care (how often patients see their assigned physician and nurse) was associated with urgent care use and hospital admissions among older adults receiving permanent home-based primary care.

Hepatitis C virus treatment is increasingly being offered in primary care because medications now require less frequent monitoring and have fewer adverse effects. However, many primary care clinicians still defer treatment to specialists due to administrative burdens, including laboratory workup, insurance prior authorizations, and pharmacy coordination, which can delay care.

Primary care clinicians spend a growing amount of time responding to patient messages through electronic portals,  a task that contributes to burnout. Some health systems are piloting using large language models (LLMs) to generate draft responses to patient messages.

In Ontario, primary care home visits, which help older adults who are homebound or have difficulty getting to a clinic, increased during the 2010s but declined after a 2019 policy change reduced payment incentives and the COVID-19 pandemic began. This study examined how primary care home visits for adults aged 65 years and older changed from 2014 to 2024.
