Based on the Future of Family Medicine Report from 2004, NDP tested the possibilities and feasibility of creating anew model of primary care, a model currently called the Patient-centered Medical Home (PCMH). The evaluation of the NDP is now finished. This presentation describes the emergent, multi-method evaluation designand process for the NDP and summarizes the key finding of the Project. Dr Miller also introduces some challenging implications for health policy and primary care advocacy, family medicine education, primary care research, and clinical care.

Developing countries face the triple menace of trauma, infectious/communicable diseases and the increasing burden of non-communicable/chronic diseases like diabetes and cardiovascular disease and cancer. Urbanization, lifestyle changes and aging of populations contribute to the epidemic of chronic disease. Prolonged exposure to risk factors increases the probability of chronic disease development. Strategies that are within the resources of a country are needed to address this epidemic. This session will discuss the prevalence of global chronic disease and strategies like the poly pill care and other cost effective innovations used by developing countries.
