Abstrakt: This article was written to describe a collaborative effort between the University of Mississippi Medical Center and the Delta Health Alliance to increase primary care providers in the 18 counties designated as the Mississippi Delta. Journals compiled by trainees were analyzed to reveal issues significant to practicing in a rural area from the perspective of medical students and residents who participated in the program. Patient noncompliance, provider sensitivity to cost, continuity of care, and quality of the doctor-patient relationship were all identified as significant issues by the trainees.
