Abstract
There is a need to redesign primary care services to respond to the growing burden of chronic NCDs in LMICs. This qualitative synthesis of patient and provider perspectives of chronic care, in LMICs, highlights additional considerations for the CCM. We recommend including communication between health professionals and patients, service provision at decentralised levels of healthcare, the availability of essential medicines, diagnostics and trained personnel, and coordination between the many healthcare providers as other essential elements in the CCM. These could guide interventions, which need further testing, to improve clinical outcomes and quality of care for chronic conditions in LMICs.
