Feedback:
It is understood that primary client care may be delivered by either a physician or by another primary healthcare provider (PCP). Persons, such as the clinical nurse specialist, the advanced practice nurse, or the trained physician's assistant, may deliver primary healthcare. This person is considered to be the client's PCP. PCPs work in coordination with a physician or osteopathic physician.
