Some considerations in the design of family practice residency experiences.

A time-study of residents in a family practice training program is reported. Data concerning time with patients and time with attending physicians tended to be inversely associated with patient volume. The proportions of time spent in these two activities are compared with related activities reported for other participants in postgraduate medical education and for practicing physicians. Study results are used to illustrate and develop some issues involved in thd design of residency experiences for primary care physicians.

Task delegation to physician extenders--some comparisons.

This study uses a task delegation questionnaire to compare 1973 physician extender practices in seven primary care-oriented sites with a physician attitude survey made in 1969. One additional site using no physician extenders was included as a control. The study involves both major types of physician extenders (physician assistants and nurse practitioners) in ambulatory practices with at least one year of experience in using such personnel. With minor exceptions, actual task delegation patterns conform with the 1969 attitudes of physicians as to which tasks "could and should" be delegated to physician extenders.
