Abstract:
A survey of two large HMOs was conducted to assess health care providers' attitudes and practices regarding firearm patient education, firearm patient counselling, and firearm regulation. Survey results were intended to provide background data on barriers to be addressed and opportunities to be used in developing day-to-day office practice interventions to reduce enrollees' risk of firearm injury.
