Primary Care Physician Needs in the Southwest U.S.: Relationships Between Geographic Locations of Study and Practice

This study helps better define the distribution of primary care physicians in the Southwestern United States and how their training locations influence their final practice location. Data pulled from the American Medical Association Physician Masterfile from the last five years are analyzed using descriptive statistics, Chi-Square, and binary logistic regression. This study is a work in progress, so there are no current findings or conclusions to report at this time.
