Naturopathic doctors are legally able to serve as primary care
physicians. How is this benefcial
and how is it problematic?
Naturopathy is a complementary and alternative medicine (CAM), which is not included as a part of the standard medical procedure. This stream of medicine involves treatment using naturally available resources such as sunlight, mud, consuming specific foods, and others to enable self-healing. The naturopathic practices are considered pseudo or non-scientific.
Allowing the naturopathic doctors to work in primary care physicians help to extend the medical services to a large group of people at low cost as the naturopathic procedures are non-invasive and use the natural resources. However, it cannot be the choice of medical approach for emergency situations. Treating emergency situations by naturopathic methods can worsen the condition.

Many primary care doctors feel overworked and burdened by potential lawsuits. Infact, a group of researchers reported that 60% of all general practice physicians do not recommend medicine as a career. Let x represent the number of sampled general practice physicians who do not recommend medicine as a career. Complete parts a through d. Use the researchers' report to estimate p for the binomial random variable. p=(Type an integer or a decimal.)
Prescription drug companies often work with local primary care physicians in the provision of samples. How is this an effective method for the consumer who is on Medicare?
According to Reader's Digest, 38% of primary care doctors think their patients receive unnecessary medical care. a. Suppose a sample of 330 primary care doctors was taken. Show the sampling distribution of the proportion of the doctors who think their patients receive unnecessary medical care. Use z-table. E(p bar)= Sigma subscript p bar= (to 4 decimals) b. What is the probability that the sample proportion will be within plus/minus0.03 of the population proportion. Round your answer to four decimals.
Nationally, there is a shortage for primary health care providers, such as family practice physicians and other generalists and this shortage is expected to increase with the aging baby boomer population. Research why this shortage exists and what actions are being taken to correct it. What are the educational requirements for generalists vs. specialist physicians? Are there enough education programs, internships and residencies available? Why or why not? What is the average pay for a generalist vs. a specialist? Considering...
