Aims to assess the level of agreement between priorities of service provision in 20 discrete clinical areas, as laid out in a district health authority (DHA) purchasing plan, and the views of GPs in the catchment area of that authority and to test for a statistically significant difference between the views of fundholding and non-fundholding GPs. A 74 per cent response rate was achieved, and analysis suggested that local GPs' views were broadly in line with their DHA strategy, and that a significant difference existed between the views of fundholders and non-fundholders in only one treatment area, namely that of lithotripsy. Concludes that the postal questionnaire is a cheap and easy method of assessing the views of GPs on prioritizing issues. As yet there is little difference between fundholding and non-fundholding GPs in this area of decision making.
旨在评估地区卫生当局（DHA）采购计划中列出的20个不同临床领域的服务提供优先级与该当局辖区内全科医生（GP）的观点之间的一致程度，并检验持有基金的全科医生和非持有基金的全科医生的观点之间是否存在统计学上的显著差异。获得了74%的回复率，分析表明当地全科医生的观点与他们所在DHA的策略大致一致，并且持有基金者和非持有基金者的观点仅在一个治疗领域，即碎石术方面存在显著差异。得出结论，邮政问卷调查是评估全科医生对优先事项看法的一种廉价且简便的方法。在这一决策领域，持有基金的全科医生和非持有基金的全科医生目前几乎没有差异。
