Referral rates and urgency of referral to hospital by six pairs of trainers and trainees were compared over one month in 1986. From 5846 consultations, 327 resulted in referral to hospital. Overall, the referral rates was low at 5.6 per 100 consultations; however, there was considerable variation in individual referral rates with trainees tending to follow their trainer's referral patterns, despite statistical adjustment for sharing the same practice. This paper critically examines the wisdom of using general practitioner referral rates for the purpose of resource allocation and education.
1986年，在一个月的时间里，对六对培训师和学员转诊至医院的比例及转诊紧迫性进行了比较。在5846次会诊中，有327次转诊至医院。总体而言，转诊率较低，为每100次会诊5.6例；然而，个体转诊率存在很大差异，尽管对共享同一诊所进行了统计调整，但学员往往遵循其培训师的转诊模式。本文批判性地审视了将全科医生转诊率用于资源分配和教育目的的合理性。
