Physician extenders (PE) can perform some tasks usually performed by a physician. Time recouped by physicians using a PE may increase physician productivity and physician professional satisfaction. A prospective study was completed using a PE in an outpatient general medical group practice setting to reduce physician indirect patient care, such as responding to patient telephone calls, refilling prescriptions, triage, and order entry. Physicians using a PE had increased productivity relative to physicians who did not use a PE. Physician satisfaction with the PE model was excellent. A physician extender may improve physician productivity by performing indirect patient care usually performed by physicians.
医师助理（PE）可以执行一些通常由医师执行的任务。医师使用医师助理节省的时间可能会提高医师的工作效率和职业满意度。在门诊综合医疗集团实践环境中使用医师助理完成了一项前瞻性研究，以减少医师的间接患者护理工作，如回复患者电话、开处方、分诊和录入医嘱。与未使用医师助理的医师相比，使用医师助理的医师工作效率有所提高。医师对医师助理模式的满意度很高。医师助理可以通过执行通常由医师执行的间接患者护理工作来提高医师的工作效率。
