- Title
Primary Care Panel Size: How You Measure Makes a Difference.
- Authors
Mayo-Smith, Michael F.
- Abstract
Dr. Jones would have a reported panel of 700 patients with one set of rules but 5004 patients with another. Because panel size is a ratio of assigned patients to provider, rules for assigning patients and for estimating provider capacity are important. Alternatively, the patients they care for can be counted in panels of associated physicians, making for considerably larger physician panel sizes.
