The Evolving Role of Canada's Family Physicians, 1992 - 2001
This new report, based on CIHI's National Physician Database, looks at how family doctors billing practices have changed over the 10-year period, 1992 - 2001. It also describes how the family practice environment has changed, including medical training trends, regulatory and policy developments as well as societal changes.
The report provides national level results for a broadly-defined range of health care services, including office and hospital inpatient visits, mental health care, basic procedures (such as suturing and joint injection/aspiration), advanced procedures (like setting broken bones and intensive care/resuscitation), surgical services (such as appendectomies and tonsillectomies), anesthesia services, obstetrical care and assisting in the operating room. Data trends are examined across geographic (urban/rural) settings as well as for physician age and gender groups.
