TEXAS PRIMARY CARE 

Our vision 

With a mission to advance accessible, continuous, and coordinated person centered care for all Texans, Texas Primary Care Consortium (TPCC) is a statewide collaborative initiative led by Texas Medical Home Initiative in partnership with Texas Health Institute. Building on the success and momentum of our annual statewide convening, "Texas Primary Care and Health Home Summit," TPCC is our commitment to expand the focus of our collaboration to improve access to systematically move the needle on primary care and health in Texas! Since 2012, THI has served as the fiscal and administrative home as well as lead convener for TPCC.

Advance Collaborative Action

The current healthcare system is no longer effective or optimal for patients, practitioners, or payors. To address the frustration, increasing costs, and poor health outcomes, Texas Primary Care Consortium creates a space for leaders across sectors to achieve a shared understanding about common issues and pursue shared solutions to change the system and improve the health of all Texans.

Decades of research have proven the foundational role of primary care in improving health outcomes, lowering costs, and reducing disparities. However, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic has shed an important light on the vulnerability of the state’s primary care system while instilling a renewed sense of urgency to protect and strengthen this foundation.
Our latest report, Making Primary Care Primary: A Prescription for the Health of all Texans, is a comprehensive, data-driven, evidence-informed review of key issues and solutions essential to advancing primary care and health system transformation in Texas. The report is accompanied by a live first-of-its-kind interactive dashboard making Texas an inaugural state to have a comprehensive primary care data resource platform with state- and county-level data. The goal is to drive consensus among leaders and stakeholders regarding how to best sustain the progress to date and provide a forward-looking outlook for efforts moving ahead.
Funding for the report and interactive dashboard has been provided by the Episcopal Health Foundation and St. David’s Foundation.
