  • Title: Location decisions of National Health Service Corps physicians.
    Author: Stamps PL, Kuriger FH.
    Journal: Am J Public Health; 1983 Aug; 73(8):906-8. PubMed ID: 6869644.
    Abstract:
    Results of a survey of 100 National Health Service Corps (NHSC) physicians in 10 east coast states (94 per cent response rate) indicate that 56 have plans to locate in a rural area after their service obligation is complete and 15 have not yet decided. Those who decide for a rural practice value personal and community factors to a higher degree than professional factors and are more likely to have a primary care practice.
