Young family physicians, those in their first five years of practice, were surveyed to determine their satisfaction regarding various aspects of their practices. A total of 67% of the physicians surveyed responded and the results indicated that most family doctors located in communities where there was a perceived need for their specialty. The survey also showed that two of the most important factors necessary to attract and retain family doctors in rural practice are enhanced third-party reimbursement and the availability of other family physicians to share call. This study underscores the necessity to know and understand the sentiments of West Virginia family physicians in order to attract more newly-trained doctors into rural practice.
对从业头五年的年轻家庭医生进行了调查，以确定他们对执业各方面的满意度。共有67%的受访医生做出了回应，结果表明，大多数家庭医生所在的社区都认为需要他们的专业服务。调查还显示，吸引和留住乡村执业家庭医生所需的两个最重要因素是提高第三方报销比例以及有其他家庭医生共同值班。这项研究强调了了解和理解西弗吉尼亚州家庭医生的看法对于吸引更多新培训医生到乡村执业的必要性。
