Address the primary care access crisis by supporting independent physician practices and making their care more affordable. Patients need timely appointments and an ongoing relationship with a physician, rather than frequent turnover and fragmented care. The county should explore start-up grants, affordable office space, tax incentives where permitted, and administrative support for independent primary care practices, including direct primary care and concierge models. Public support could be tied to community benefits, such as reduced-cost care and access for lower-income residents. Income-based assistance could also help patients establish care with participating practices. Residents need meaningful choices beyond large corporate healthcare organizations.
