Bighorn Primary Care Network

primary care networks (pcns) are not-for-profit organizations supported by an agreement between the alberta medical association (ama), alberta health (ah) and alberta health services (ahs). pcns are collaborations between local physician groups and ahs zones to enhance comprehensive primary care services in a specific geographic area. the bighorn primary care network, formerly grande cache primary care network, was established in 2013 and expanded its geography in 2015 to include hinton and the surrounding area. the bighorn pcn provides clinical programming to the residents of the region, and works to support the 18 physicians in grande cache and hinton as they deliver primary care services. there are 42 pcns operating throughout alberta. our mission at the bighorn pcn is comprehensive care through a preventative approach in a team based setting.
