This line graph depicts the number of FP/GP
physicians that are and may practice in rural areas from 1997 to 2020
based on three variables. These variables include: 3,981 physicians
per year, an increase of 200 physicians per year for 5 years, or a decrease
200 physicians per year for 5 years. In 2020, by these standards, if
there are 3,981 physicians each year, there will be a steady rise of
36 to 37 physicians per 100,000. With an increase of 200 physicians
per year over 5 years, in 2020 there will be approximately 43 to 44
physicians per 100,000. With a decrease of 200 physicians per year over
5 years, in 2020 there will be approximately 31 to 22 physicians per
100,000. |
