A major concern to the rural citizens of the United States is the availability of health care in their community. Community leaders and physicians considering locating in rural communities need a method by which they can evaluate a community's potential for supporting a physician. A detailed survey was conducted in 1986 of 25 physicians' practices in rural Oklahoma. Data were collected from the physicians on their number of patient visits and practice costs in 1985. Using this information, the authors designed a model to project the economic feasibility of establishing a physician practice in a specific community. This model can be used to project the number of physician visits a community can generate, the costs to establish and maintain a clinic, and the gross and net income of the practice.

The purpose of the study reported here was to identify differences between graduates who were in different curricula at Loyola University of Chicago Stritch School of Medicine. The physicians who had been in the special track, which combined the basic and clinical sciences throughout the program, chose specialties in family practice and psychiatry more than the regular track students and more often were salaried. One-third of those in the special curriculum felt the greatest strength of their medical school training was the preparation for independent learning, and a majority viewed a practice in which there were uncertainties in diagnosis as desirable. The traditional program graduate preferred to deal with cases in which important decisions had to be made rapidly and the effects of treatment could be immediately addressed. The two groups disagreed as to who should have major control of health care, on issues of peer review in the office, and on the emphasis physicians should give preventive care.

A needs assessment was used to plan a national workshop on management skills for chief residents. Of replies from 1,256 residency programs, 50 percent of the respondents reported a high likelihood of attending such a workshop. The three skills that the respondents considered should be given high priority in such a workshop were giving feedback, delegating duties, and building teamwork. Based on these responses, the author designed and conducted a two-day workshop in June 1987 that was attended by 180 chief residents from 138 programs in 21 specialties from 36 states. Each skill was taught by presenting a lecture and a small-group exercise to apply the skill; these small groups were led by trained faculty members. The participants rated the workshop as 4.21 (on a 5-point scale in which 5 = very helpful). The workshop will be offered annually.
