The training and utilization of New Health Practitioners (NHP's) has moved within a decade from a small tentative beginning in the mid-1960's to a major health manpower policy issue. Its discussion transcends a number of important and emotionally charged areas including the role of various professions in providing health care services, the renaissance of primary care, the geographic and economic maldistribution of medical services, and the cost of care. It is valuable to highlight what is known, what is professed and what needs to be studied further about this issue.
新健康从业者(NHP)的培训与利用在十年间,从20世纪60年代中期一个小规模的初步尝试发展成为一个重大的卫生人力政策问题。其讨论涉及多个重要且充满情感因素的领域,包括各专业在提供医疗保健服务中的作用、初级保健的复兴、医疗服务在地理和经济上的分布不均以及医疗成本。突出关于这个问题已知的、宣称的以及需要进一步研究的内容是很有价值的。
