Family Practice Graduate Medical Education and Hospitals' Patient Care Costs in New Jersey.

Tallia, Alfred F.; And Others

Academic Medicine, v69 n9 p747-53 Sep 1994

A study comparing inpatient care costs of family practice residencies and other residency programs found that family practice residencies do not add to direct inpatient costs and may even reduce costs. It is suggested that this provides an additional rationale for institutions to sponsor graduate training in family practice. (Author/MSE)
