Denmark, where GPs get the respect they deserve

Description

According to Janus Nikolaj Laust Thomsen, clinical professor and leader of Center for General Practice at Aalborg University, Denmark's general practice success partly comes from the cradle to death single patient identifyer with a general practitioner assigned already at birth. He explains that every practitioner has a funding contract with the government with a 30% reimbursement of listed patients and 70% reimbursement on activities. This is re-negotiated every four years.
