    • Analysis of contemporary surveys on medical school and graduate training in primary care.
    • Assessment of the projected supply of primary care physicians versus public need.

    Main Results:

    • Significant knowledge gained from 1950s comprehensive care teaching is not being utilized today.
    • Existing primary care training structures may lead to an insufficient number of personal physicians.
