To estimate the number of full-time-equivalent (FTE) physicians and geriatricians needed to provide medical care in the years 2000 to 2030, we developed utilization-based models of need for non-surgical physicians and need for geriatricians. Based on projected utilization, the number of FTE physicians required to care for the elderly will increase two- or threefold over the next 40 years. Alternate economic scenarios have very little effect on estimates of FTE physicians needed but exert large effects on the projected number of FTE geriatricians needed. We conclude that during the years 2000 to 2030, population growth will be the major factor determining the number of physicians needed to provide medicare care; economic forces will have a greater influence on the number of geriatricians needed.

“…It recommends that the checks on knowledge should be identical in quality to those on specialized training and guarantee a comparably high level of training in all the Member States. This report and these recommendations were adopted unanimously by the Committee on 5 October 1988 with 23 (1) votes in favour; 13 (2) members were absent and not represented. This report and these recommendations are addressed to the Commission and the Member States and will be forwarded to them after having been confirmed in all Community language versions by the Committee by written procedure.…”

Medical training in the European Community

Summary The free movement of doctors within the European Community demands harmonization of standards of medical practice and carries major implications of an undergraduate and postgraduate educational kind. These have begun to be addressed by the first three Medical Directives and also by a series of reports produced by the Advisory Committee on Medical Training to the European Community. This Committee was established in 1975 in order to provide informed agreed advice to the Commission. Many tasks remain to be tackled. A system of mutual inspection of the examination processes and standards in Member States should be established. Control must be exercised over the numbers of doctors produced since educational resources, including numbers of patients available for study, are limited. Thus, excellent standards of medical practice can only be developed and maintained if the primacy of clinical skills derived from the study of patients is recognized as essential in this respect. In some Member States at the present time there are many unemployed and therefore presumably deskilled doctors.

“…An undersupply presents a favorable environment for the greater utilization of nurses. However an oversupply will create greater turf battles among physicians, nurses, and other allied health care professionals (Andreoli, 1985;Blendon, 1986;Schloss, 1988).…”
