Sumario:Australia’s primary health care system works well for most Australians, but 20% of people live with multimorbidity, often receiving fragmented care in a complex system. Australia’s 10‐year plan for primary health care recognises that person‐centred care is essential to securing universal health coverage, improving health outcomes and achieving an integrated sustainable health system. The Health Care Homes trial tested a new model of person‐centred care for people with chronic and complex health conditions. This model demonstrated that change can be achieved with dedicated transformational support and highlighted the importance of enablers and reform streams that are now established in the 10‐year plan.
