[A record of procedures--its use and usefulness. Evaluation of a tool for general practitioners in Telemark].
A loose-leaf book of procedures has been published earlier. The aim of this evaluation was to study the use of this book in the county of Telemark, and the possible effect of the book on the quality of the letters notifying admission to hospital. A questionnaire has been sent twice to all general practitioners in Telemark. In addition, the medical directors of two hospital departments have evaluated the quality of the letters of admission before and after the distribution of the book. The results are interesting, and show that the book is widely used in the county of Telemark.
