| Abstrakt: | Care coordination is a critical component of a strong primary care system. The Commonwealth Fund (CMWF) 2019 International Health Policy Survey of Primary Care Physicians polled physicians in 11 countries, allowing international and pan-Canadian comparisons of physicians' perspectives in this area. Canadian physicians indicated that there was room for improvement in coordinating care with those outside their practice, particularly specialists, home-based care providers and social services. Opportunities may arise in learning from higher-performing CMWF countries and in adopting new information technologies that are growing methods of facilitating communication across care settings.
