A survey of general practice in the London borough of Lambeth was analysed to discover how the distance from a patient's home to a medical facility affects the utilisation of that facility. It was shown that distance has a negative effect on utilisation for all population groups except men aged 15 to 64. The effect was especially marked for women, for the elderly, and for Social Classes III, IV, and V, which are the groups with highest utilisation rates. Some diagnostic groups singled out for analysis showed the same effect. These results are related to other studies and to an economic theory seeking to explain patterns of demand.
对伦敦兰贝斯区的全科医疗情况进行了一项调查分析，以探究患者住所与医疗设施之间的距离如何影响该设施的使用情况。结果显示，除了15至64岁的男性外，距离对所有人群的医疗设施使用都有负面影响。这种影响在女性、老年人以及社会阶层III、IV和V中尤为明显，而这些群体的使用率是最高的。一些专门挑选出来进行分析的诊断组也显示出同样的效果。这些结果与其他研究以及一种试图解释需求模式的经济理论相关。
