General practitioners (GPs) are the"gatekeepers"of residents' health. In China, Up to 2021, 84.4% of GPs account for 22.7% of the total primary physicians. The quantity and quality of the GP workforce are related to the level of primary care services. In recent years, the central government and governments at all levels have attached great importance to the construction of the GP workforce and successively introduced many supportive policies. However, the number of GPs in China currently only accounts for 10.1% of practicing (assistant) physicians, and the lack of position attractiveness of GPs has become the main reason restricting the development and growth of the GP workforce. Based on the talent itself, this paper constructs a talent development mechanism-oriented model of "primary general practitioner-position attractiveness" to deeply analyze the dilemmas of GPs in seven aspects of education, recruitment, application, motivation, evaluation, development and support, explore countermeasures to solve the problems, in order to provide a scientific basis for enhancing the position attractiveness of GPs, stabilizing the talent team of GPs, and improving the quality and level of primary care services.
