This summary report for 2002 provides the detailed and updated data on all Graduate Medical Education (GME) residents and fellows in Louisiana for the last academic year. The 2002 match results and the trend in matching over the last 4 years depict the consistent successful match by Louisiana institutions. The totals and components of GME in Louisiana are steady. The infusion of gradually increasing numbers of physicians over the last 30 years in the United States and in Louisiana is quantified to indicate the present consistent steady state production and supply. The ripple effect into the physician population of this infusion now shows the expected beginning stabilization, although incomplete at this juncture. While demand for physician services for healthcare delivery is difficult to define and quantify, the inexorable increase of utilization of healthcare services portends a future mismatch of supply and demand, a shortage not a surplus.
这份2002年的总结报告提供了路易斯安那州上一学年所有毕业后医学教育(GME)住院医师和研究员的详细且最新的数据。2002年的匹配结果以及过去4年的匹配趋势表明路易斯安那州的机构一直成功匹配。路易斯安那州GME的总数和组成部分保持稳定。对过去30年美国和路易斯安那州逐渐增加的医生数量的注入进行了量化,以表明目前持续稳定的生产和供应状态。这种注入对医生群体产生的连锁反应现在显示出预期的开始稳定,尽管目前尚未完全稳定。虽然医疗保健服务中对医生服务的需求难以界定和量化,但医疗保健服务利用率的必然增加预示着未来供需不匹配,是短缺而非过剩。
