In another article from the AMA news, the Robert Graham center states that Title VII increased the percentage of family physicians.
The study examined data on all U.S. graduating classes of medical students from 1981 to 1993 and compared those attending schools that received grants from Title VII with those attending schools that did not.
Grants boost primary care: Federal money through Title VII is the reason for the increase. I hate to be the skeptic, but the conclusion doesn’t pass scientific muster. Which schools applied for Title VII moneys? Or more important, which schools didn’t apply? We would not accept this conclusion in a scientific publication. I personally believe that Title VII moneys are worthwhile and valuable. This study doesn’t prove their worth.
