  • Title: A house call program as an essential component of primary care training.
    Author: Perkel RL, Silenzio VM, Kairys MZ.
    Journal: Prim Care; 1996 Mar; 23(1):47-65. PubMed ID: 8900506.
    Abstract:
    Despite the decline in the frequency of house calls by physicians during the twentieth century, such activities generally have been accepted as valuable and desirable by physicians and continue to be a feature of primary care practice. As the economic basis of health care undergoes significant changes in the era of managed care, the future viability of home visits by medical practitioners similarly hangs in the balance.
