The Commission on the Social Determinants of Health and the World Health Organization have
called for action to address the social determinants of health. This paper considers the extent to which primary
health care services in Australia are able to respond to this call. We report on interview data from an empirical
study of primary health care centres in Adelaide and Alice Springs, Australia.
