The resolution proposes the establishment of a special legislative commission in Rhode Island to study primary care medicine. This commission will consist of fourteen members, including representatives from the House of Representatives, the Rhode Island Medical Society, the Attorney General's office, the Department of Health, the Department of Human Services, and various primary care physicians and nurse practitioners. The commission's primary objective is to conduct a comprehensive analysis of primary care practices in the state, focusing on independently owned medical practices, financial challenges, and potential funding sources.

The commission is tasked with reviewing best practices from other states, exploring ways to enhance revenue for primary care providers, and identifying both short- and long-term solutions to improve the delivery of primary care in Rhode Island. The commission will operate for approximately two years, with a requirement to report its findings and recommendations to the House by April 28, 2028, and may issue interim reports as needed. The resolution emphasizes the importance of primary care in the state's healthcare system and aims to create a coordinated effort to enhance its effectiveness.

Introduced by Representatives Hopkins, Donovan, Boylan, Knight, and Speakman on May 15, the resolution has been referred to the House Health & Human Services Committee.
