Primary Care
Establishing a primary care relationship before you or a family member becomes ill provides you and your provider a “baseline” understanding of your current health situation. Think of healthcare as a bicycle wheel with you and your CHP primary care team as the hub or middle of the wheel. We work with you to understand your healthcare needs and help you connect with other spokes of the healthcare wheel:
Specialists, lab or imaging tests, medicine, and all the necessary parts to keeping you well.
It is the primary care team’s job to make sure that all your needed preventive care is completed and that you have someone you know to contact when something doesn’t feel right. We have many experts on our team, including physicians, dentists, clinical pharmacists, nurse practitioners, physician assistants, nurses, behavioral health staff, resource coordinators, and others all looking out for your healthcare.
