Bayhealth Continues Primary Care Expansion Across Delaware

Bayhealth is making it easier for patients across central and southern Delaware to find a primary care clinician by adding more clinicians, expanding appointment availability and offering convenient online scheduling. The expansion is part of The Next Wave of Primary Care, Bayhealth's latest effort to meet the growing healthcare needs of the communities it serves.

Bayhealth is continually listening to the needs of the communities it serves and investing in new ways to make it easier for patients to receive care. As Delaware's population continues to grow, so does the need for timely, convenient primary care. Through The Next Wave of Primary Care, patients can establish care more easily with an expanded network of primary care clinicians and online self-scheduling through MyChart.

"Our communities deserve timely, convenient access to high-quality primary care," said Dina Perry, MBA, Bayhealth vice president of physician services operations. "The Next Wave of Primary Care reflects our commitment to growing alongside our communities by reducing barriers to care and making it easier for patients to connect with the primary care they need."

Primary care plays an important role in helping people stay healthy through preventive care, annual checkups, chronic disease management and treatment for common illnesses. Establishing care with a trusted primary care clinician can help identify health concerns early, improve long-term health and keep patients healthier at every stage of life.

The Next Wave of Primary Care is one part of The Next Wave, Bayhealth's multi-year initiative to improve access to care through innovative programs, new and expanded facilities and continued investments that meet the growing healthcare needs of central and southern Delaware.

Patients can learn more, find a primary care clinician accepting new patients and schedule an appointment online at Bayhealth.org/Primary-Care.
