Soutien à la recherche et concours CIHR - Operating Grant : SPOR PIHCI Network: Quick Strikes

The pan-Canadian Network is rooted in community-based primary health care (CBPHC), which comprises a broad range of primary care and primary prevention services horizontally integrated within the community (including public health, community pharmacy services, rehabilitation support, home care and more), and which is recognized as playing an essential role in addressing  health challenges. Recognizing the importance of facilitating transitions across the care continuum, the pan-Canadian Network incorporates a focus on horizontal integration of CBPHC services; vertical system integration through primary, secondary, and tertiary care; and multi-sector integration of upstream prevention strategies and care delivery models.

The pan-Canadian SPOR Network’s overall goal is to support evidence-informed transformation and delivery of more cost-effective primary and integrated health care to improve patient experience and health, health equity, and health system outcomes for individuals with and/or at risk of developing complex health needs.
