Abstract

The COVID-19 pandemic has seen a loss of continuity of care in general practice, with impacts on patient care, including missed preventive health opportunities, delayed diagnosis and over-investigation, as well as GP burnout. As the pandemic continues, GPs need to be supported to maintain continuity of care to achieve the best outcomes for their patients and themselves.
