Physicians preferred

Colleagues | Community | Costs
A study commissioned by the American Academy of Family Physicians shows 72% patients prefer physicians over nurse practitioners for their medical care..
The American Association of Nurse Practitioners, also curious about what type of care patients want, released its own study last month showing that healthcare consumers are in favor of expanding responsibility for NPs.
The two surveys do not exactly contradict each other, but it does indicate the two sides-nurses and doctors-are digging in their heels over who is qualified to take the lead in caring for the expected surge of newly insured Americans that will strain primary care providers.
