MULTIPLE CHOICE cb




1. Which of the following has influenced an emphasis on primary care education in
cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb



cb medicalschools? cb




a. Changes in Medicare reimbursement cb cb cb



methods recommended in 1992
cb cb cb cb




b. Competition from nonphysicians desiring cb cb cb



to meet primary care shortages
cb cb cb cb cb




c. The need for monopolistic control in the
cb cb cb cb cb cb



marketplace of primary outpatient care
cb cb cb cb cb




d. The recognition that nonphysicians have
cb cb cb cb



variable success providing primary care
cb cb cb cb cb




ANS: A cb



The Physician Payment Review Commission in 1992 directly increased financial
cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb



reimbursement to clinicians who provide primary care. Coupled with a shortage of
cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb



primary care providers, this incentive led medical schools to place greater emphasis
cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb



onpreparing primary care physicians. Competition from nonphysicians increased
cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb



coincidentally as professionals from other disciplines stepped up to meet the needs.
cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb



Nonphysicians have had increasing success at providing primary care and have
cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb



beenshown to be safe and effective.

2. Which of the following statements is true about the prescribing practices of physicians?
cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb




a. Older physicians tend to prescribe more
cb cb cb cb cb



appropriate medications than younger
cb cb cb cb



physicians.
cb




b. Antibiotic medications remain in the top cb cb cb cb cb



five classifications of medications
cb cb cb cb



prescribed.
cb




c. Most physicians rely on a “therapeutic
cb cb cb cb cb



armamentarium” that consists of less than
cb cb cb cb cb cb



100 drug preparations per physician.
cb cb cb cb cb




d. The dominant form of drug information
cb cb cb cb cb



used by primary care physicians
cb cb cb cb cb



continuesto be that provided by
cb cb cb cb cb cb



pharmaceutical companies.
cb cb




ANS: D cb



Even though most physicians claim to place little weight on drug advertisements,

pharmaceutical representatives, and patient preference and state that they rely on
cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb



academic sources for drug information, a study showed that commercial rather than
cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb



scientific sources of drug information dominated their drug information materials.
cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb



Younger physicians tend to prescribe fewer and more appropriate drugs. Antibiotics have
cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb



dropped out of the top five classifications of drugs prescribed. Most physicians have a
cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb



therapeutic armamentarium of about 144 drugs.

3. As primary care nurse practitioners (NPs) continue to develop their role as prescribers
cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb



cb ofmedications, it will be important to:
cb cb cb cb cb cb




a. attain the same level of expertise cb cb cb cb cb



as physicians who currently
cb cb cb cb



prescribe medications.
cb cb




b. learn from the experiences of physicians
cb cb cb cb cb



and develop expertise based on
cb cb cb cb cb



evidence-based practice.
cb cb cb




c. maintain collaborative and supervisorial cb cb cb



relationships with physicians who will
cb cb cb cb cb



oversee prescribing practices.
cb cb cb




d. develop relationships with pharmaceutical cb cb cb



representatives to learn about new
cb cb cb cb cb



medications as they are developed.
cb cb cb cb cb




ANS: B cb



As nonphysicians develop the roles associated with prescriptive authority, it will be
cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb



important to learn from the past experiences of physicians and to develop prescribing
cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb



practices based on evidence-based medicine. It is hoped that all prescribers, including
cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb



physicians and nurse practitioners, will strive to do better than in the past. NPs should
cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb



work toward prescriptive authority and for practice that is not supervised by another
cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb



professional. Pharmaceutical representatives provide information that carries some
cb cb cb cb cb cb cb cb



bias.Academic sources are better.
