June 17- I found a great article on the importance for health care providers to invest more in primary care by hiring more doctors, physician assistants, and nurses and how it can really pay for itself in the long run.

CEO Scott Armstrong said "At a time when resources are tight, we are so confident in our findings that we are hiring more primary care doctors, physician assistants, and nurses, because we believe this is the best way to achieve our goal of excellent affordable care." Their philosophy of increasing staff has already led to a reduction in emergency room visits and inpatient hospital stays.
