To better understand how U.S. medical schools are using and compensating community preceptors.
In 1995, the authors sent questionnaires to associate deans for education at all 125 U.S. medical schools. Each questionnaire asked whether that school used community preceptors to teach students and, if so, from what disciplines community preceptors came, at what sites community preceptors taught students, how community preceptors were compensated, and how these factors varied for each year of medical school.
One hundred schools (80%) completed the questionnaire. Ninety-six reported using community preceptors. Primary care physicians were used most often, and private practices were the dominant teaching location. A clinical academic appointment was the most common compensation. Few schools compensated community preceptors monetarily. Community preceptors' involvement was substantial in all four years, but greatest in year three.
Community preceptors are widely used in educating medical students, especially in year three. More recognition and better compensation of these important educators is necessary.
为了更好地了解美国医学院校如何利用社区带教教师以及如何对其进行补偿。
1995年，作者向美国所有125所医学院校负责教育工作的副院长发放问卷。每份问卷询问该校是否利用社区带教教师来教授学生，如果是，社区带教教师来自哪些学科，在哪些地点教授学生，如何对社区带教教师进行补偿，以及这些因素在医学院校的每一年中如何变化。
100所学校（80%）完成了问卷。96所学校报告使用了社区带教教师。初级保健医生使用最为频繁，私人诊所是主要的教学地点。临床学术任命是最常见的补偿方式。很少有学校对社区带教教师进行金钱补偿。社区带教教师在四年中都深度参与，但在第三年参与度最高。
社区带教教师在医学生教育中被广泛使用，尤其是在第三年。有必要对这些重要的教育工作者给予更多认可和更好的补偿。
