- Title
Physician Training: More Than a Legislative Issue.
- Authors
Hiller, Marc D.; Schmidt, Robert M.
- Abstract
The authors assert the need to develop a unified federal policy for physician training in the U.S. According to them, such policy is expected to increase the supply of physicians attending specialty training and thus meeting the needs of future national health programs. They further claim that the present medical education policy, which emphasizes on output, will only produce a vast number of underemployed, highly skilled specialists by the mid 1980's.
