Primary Care at A(nother) Crossroads
March 3-4, 2025 | UBC Vancouver Campus or Virtual
The 37th annual CHSPR health policy conference will confront the primary care crisis. With primary care stretched beyond its limits, it is necessary for provincially delivered and funded systems to learn from each other and more quickly apply evidence to practice. Speakers will survey approaches that are being implemented to support patients in navigating primary care, address workforce shortages, decrease inefficiencies, and use data to transform care. The event will be offered in hybrid format.
CHSPR’s long-standing conference promotes discussion between policy-makers, academics, providers, trainees, patients and national organizations on timely issues shaping health systems in Canada. The 2025 conference will bring together participants from diverse groups and from across the country to discuss ways to manage, deliver and finance primary care that aims to achieve the Quintuple Aim; and explore ways to increase health care equity through innovations in care delivery. Addressing challenges in our primary care systems requires co-designing strategies, collaborative dialogues, and coordinating activities, and the conference promises to engage in this transformative work.
