Abstrakt: Increasing concern with the problem of providing medical care to rural populations had led to interest in the use of former medical corpsmen as physician assistants. This study of attitudes and opinions on this approach suggests potentially serious problems to be overcome. Evidence is cited and the need for prior preparation of the medical and lay public is stressed. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
