Medical Schools and Public Health Departments: A New Alliance for Progress.

Weiler, Philip G.; Clawson, D. K.

Journal of Medical Education, v54 n3 p217-23 Mar 1979

An experimental health-care delivery and teaching model, the health department-medical school affiliation, is described. Its conceptual basis and the affiliation agreement are reviewed and its impact is likened to that of the medical school-teaching hospital affiliation. The affiliation between the Lexington-Fayette County Health Department and the University of Kentucky's Department of Community Medicine is noted. (Author/LBH)
