2023 Virginia Task Force on Primary Care Reports
The Virginia Task Force on Primary full set of reports for SFY’23 include three new reports — a primary care scorecard, a telehealth report, and a behavioral health report — as well as updates to Virginia’s primary care spend report, its total cost of care report, and a comprehensive report of task force activities for SFY’23.
Collectively, these six reports substantiate your concerns that Virginia’s primary care workforce is burned out, leaving the profession, and already too small to care for the needs of Virginians. Additionally, we note significant regional differences in access, utilization, and investment in primary care, with far fewer primary care providers in Virginia’s rural communities.
