Gender norms in a context of legal pluralism
To achieve Sustainable Development Goal 5 for gender equality by 2030, it is crucial for health and development professionals and governmental officials to understand how legal systems empower or oppress populations on the basis of gender worldwide, including opportunities and challenges of statutory provisions created by legal pluralism. Using Ethiopia as a case study, this paper examines how local laws applied in Sharia and Customary Dispute Re…
Academic Group Practice
In order to evaluate physician response to the reorganization of a traditional medical clinic into a group practice model, a randomized controlled trial was conducted using equivalent groups of patients and physicians. The group practice model, unlike the traditional clinic, provided decentralized registration, 5 days/week clinic coverage, and night/weekend phone coverage. Residents worked in small groups with an attending physician, nurse practi…
Effect of an Academic Group Practice on Patient Show Rates
Ambulatory medical clinics at academic centers are reputed to be expensive, inefficient, and poorly regarded by the medical residents who staff them. In an effort to address these problems, some centers have reorganized their traditional clinics into group practices. These group practices are thought to be more effective for teaching and providing services than are the traditional clinics. This is a report on the results of a study in which the a…
Influence of Simple Computerized Feedback on Prescription Charges in an Ambulatory Clinic
Pharmaceuticals account for a significant portion of health care costs and are an important target for attempts at cost reductions. While many techniques have been shown effective, most are resource-intensive, have demonstrated fatigue after the intervention is ceased, and have been directed at specific items rather than total charges. The authors designed a computerized program to feed back prescription charges. The intervention is easy to execu…
Academic Group Practice
The effect upon patient satisfaction of a reorganization of a traditional medical clinic into a group practice model was examined in a controlled trial in which both patients and physicians were randomized. The group practice model, unlike the traditional clinic, provided decentralized registration, 5 days/week clinic coverage, and night/weekend phone coverage. Residents worked in small groups with an attending physician, a nurse practitioner, an…

Improving Physician Compliance With Preventive Medicine Guidelines
Similar general medical outpatient clinics with randomly assigned patients were used to evaluate the effectiveness of a program that was to increase house staff compliance with preventive medicine guidelines. Two clinics were designated experimental and two served as controls. In the experimental clinics, age-specific checklists of all recommended preventive procedures (drawn from the Canadian Task Force report on The Periodic Health Examination …
Does Cost Information Availability Reduce Physician Test Usage
Four similar teams of physicians associated with similar inpatient units and randomly assigned patients were used to study the effect of providing physicians with cost information about their use of lab tests and x-rays. Two teams received information about lab test costs, and two teams received x-ray test costs. Test usage fell during the experimental conditions and continued to fall after the experimental period ended in teams in which there wa…
Working for a Healthier America
The Use of Prenatal Cytogenetic Diagnosis
To determine whether the reduction in services associated with prepaid group practice is indiscriminate or limited to medically "discretionary" services, the author compared the utilization rates for prenatal cytogenetic diagnosis (a medically indicated service for women aged 35 and older) in prepaid group practices and the geographically corresponding populations-at-large in four settings. The utilization rates by members of the prepaid group pr…
