Sammanfattning
In 1979 Stockholm County Council began a study of increas primary health care (PHC) at Matteus Primary Health Care Centre (MPHCC) in Stockholm city. The aims were to analyse changes in utilization of out-patient care (OPC). This article analyses the changes in the population's visits to non- public employed physicians. In this study it was shown that increased PHC in the study district resulted in a significant decrease (27%) of the population's visits to private-, occupational- and school health physicians.
