Basic Health Access Primary Care Workforce

Primary Care Decline: Declining Retention and Primary Care Failure Despite Expansions of Primary Care Graduates The US design for primary care fails as 22,000 of 28,000 Annual Primary Care Graduates are Flexible and Leave Primary Care.
The Standard Primary Care Year Atlas The Standard Primary Care Year Primary Care in the United States must be understood in terms of actual delivery of primary care, not claims of primary care. Maximal primary care is 35 years of a career spent 90% in primary care with 90% active for a career with top volume. Minimal primary care is 27 years, 10 - 30% remaining in primary care, 60% active, and lowest volume of primary care.

Resolving Primary Care and Basic Health Access Shortages Is there a solution for most needed health access remaining at a time when so few remain in primary care and serve those left behind?
Producing Doctors for Seniors: Brave Legislators Needed to Support Health Care That Will Meet the Needs of Senior Citizens The studies are conclusive. The United States fails to produce doctors that will locate practices in locations where older Americans are found. About 70% of seniors are found in zip codes with only 20 - 25% of physicians. While health care legislation is often controversial. Without a change, seniors will not have the types of health care most needed. Most needed changes are often compromised before, during, and after the legislative process. Experts in the language of legislation must meet up with experts in the language of health access to establish basic health access as a real foundation for efficient and effective health care.

More Failures of Reagan Policies and Since: Basic Health Access
Beyond Rhetoric to Reality in Health Access Many consider themselves as contributors to health access, but few actually deliver health access, even in primary care training. Primary care graduates actually fail to remain with a majority in primary care for 3 if not 4 of the sources of primary care. Claims of primary care and basic health access remain steady for family practice MD, DO, NP, and PA forms but NP and PA forms are leaving the family practice broad generalist mode that is the only mode associated with practice location in zip codes containing the 65% of the population left behind, especially rural populations and underserved populations.
Nebraska: A Practical Application of Experiential Place and Workforce With changes in admission, in training, and in career choice, where is Nebraska heading. Can the state produce and retain the necessary physicians when other states have higher concentrations of physicians that attract physicians from all lesser concentrations, including states with lesser concentrations. What happens when family physicians, the bulk of health access for Nebaskans, are produced at half the levels of a decade ago, no longer drift in from others states, and no longer have the greater salaries and value of broadly trained family physicians? Then consider most of the states in the United States similar to Nebraska or with large regions of population similar to Nebraska.
Primary Care Past, Present, and Future Using the Most Important Criteria for Primary Care - Actually Remaining in Primary Care and Delivering Primary Care Make the comparison between 15,000 more flexible forms with 5000 more IM, 5000 more NP, and 5000 more PA graduates as compared to 5000 more family medicine residency graduates. Flexible training forms fail to address massive and growing primary care deficits while the family medicine intervention moves the nation toward most needed health access. Graphics illustrate the changes.
Summary - Why 5000 More Family Medicine Graduates Is the Remaining Solution for Recovery of Basic Health Access in the United States Maximal primary care, maximal distribution to all populations in need, maximal retention in primary care, 6 - 10 times more primary care per graduate, and far less decline in primary care contributions compared to other primary care forms are all logical, common sense reasons to increase family medicine residency graduates to 8000 per year by 2020.
Missing Persons: Eliminations of Primary Care in the 1980s and 2000s Compare the graphics demonstrating production of primary care to identify the decades with decreased production and retention of primary care. Also remember the insufficient health access production extending for decades prior to the 1970s. Then consider the deficits being built now, for the next decade, and potentially beyond.
Why Nurse Practitioners Are Not Primary Care Shortage Solutions The NP primary care training form demonstrates the fewest years in a career (27 not 35), the lowest volume of primary care delivered (60% not 100%), the lowest % remaining active at 60%, a steadily lower rate of primary care retention for over 30 years, four times more found in administrative careers, and the fewest graduates actually counted. In addition the NP movement is toward internal medicine subspecialties and away from the family practice broad generalist mode in pratice (not just training). These all defeat primary care, rural primary care, underserved primary care. Nurse practitioners are much better choices for the hospital and specialty careers that they are more and more likely to pursue. Benefits are seen for NP (salaries, support, benefits) as well as employer (lowest cost of workforce and higher revenue generation) for maximal cost to productivity ratios. Why do others claim future primary care contributions? They only see the small percentage of active primary care NPs and they cling to NP contributions decades ago long departed.
