How to Lure Doctors to Rural America- The Rural Health Care Dilemma

About 25 percent of Americans live in rural areas, yet only 10 percent of physicians choose to practice there. Why? And what can be done about it?
By: Strategic Book Publishing
 
Oct. 9, 2009 - PRLog -- Dr. Eron Manusov answers these questions in his book The Rural Health Care Dilemma: A Physician’s View. He cites isolation from colleagues, lack of technology and skewed expectations of how a physician practices in a rural community as the reasons doctors stay away from rural settings. Yet in citing these reasons, he turns the minuses into pluses, pointing the way toward improved healthcare for millions of Americans.

He spotlights both physician and patient needs in terms of infrastructure, mainstream technologies and medical expertise. And he lays out what it would take to improve the education, recruitment and retention of rural physicians, who will discover the joys of practicing medicine in isolated communities.
