The 1994 Joint WHO-WONCA working paper
entitled "Making Medical Practice and Education More Relevant to People's
Needs: The Contribution of the Family Doctor" put forth twenty-one
priority recommendations. In 1996, the CFPC Janus Project, an innovative
project that combines an extensive physician awards program with national level
surveys of Canadian family physicians (NFPS), was established in response
to these recommendations, in particular:
-
"Accept that health care must change"
- The
NFPS was designed to inform and measure change.
- The Janus Awards Program
supports change and growth.
-
"Define the status and role of family doctors"
- The NFPS was designed to identify the status and roles played by
Canadian family physicians.
-
"More emphasis on health services, population based and
primary care research"
- A goal of the NFPS is to provide
information that will link the provision of primary care/family physician
services to population health outcomes.
