“…165 A number of telemedicine systems at least partially address the information needs of primary care. 166 -173 Georgia's GaIN 23,140,141 and West Virginia's CONSULT 174 are two older, established statewide networks whose participating ''spoke'' sites receive MEDLINE access, e-mail, and consultative services. Both networks give community physicians the opportunity to channel information requests to trained ''information gatekeepers'' at remote sites, such as regional hospitals.…”

Synthesizing the state of the art from the published literature, this review assesses the basis for employing the Internet to support the information needs of primary care. The authors survey what has been published about the information needs of clinical practice, including primary care, and discuss currently available information resources potentially relevant to primary care. Potential methods of linking information needs with appropriate information resources are described in the context of previous classifications of clinical information needs. Also described is the role that existing terminology mapping systems, such as the National Library of Medicine's Unified Medical Language System, may play in representing and linking information needs to answers.

“…The most convenient and efficient way to communicate with physicians and establish a link between the physician and the hospital was through electronic mail. 6,7 To encourage physician use, the interactive Web site was designed for maximum efficiency and speed. 8 Our surveillance network successfully detected both large, seasonal fluctuations in disease and smaller, nonseasonal fluctuations in the yearly disease pattern.…”

Following an initial description of the marketplace for CME, the article identifies and explores six key issues for the future of academic CME: evolution of the academic health center; practice changes and reimbursement; impact of technology; regulatory influences; proliferation of CME providers; and medical school leadership. The author then turns to a discussion of new ways to link CME with practitioners--through academic health centers, within various practice environments, through technology, in the regulatory arena, and by developing relationships with competing groups and organizations. Finally, the article suggests several organizational models with potential for expanding these linkages.
