Abstract

By 1979, 77% of medical school primary teaching hospitals had functioning general internal medicine units; less than 5% had existed before 1970. These units were established to meet institutional needs for primary care internal medicine teachers and clinicians. By the end of the decade they had achieved major administrative and staffing responsibility for a wide variety of general education and service activities. The scope of general internal medicine units goes beyond the narrow definition of primary care internal medicine, to include activities traditionally considered those of the entire department of medicine.

摘要

到1979年，77%的医学院校附属主要教学医院设有通用内科部门；1970年以前设立的此类部门不到5%。设立这些部门是为了满足机构对初级保健内科教师和临床医生的需求。到这十年结束时，它们已在各种普通教育和服务活动中承担了主要的行政和人员配备职责。通用内科部门的范围超出了初级保健内科的狭义定义，包括传统上被认为是整个内科部门的活动。
