Constraining the Supply of Physicians: Effects on Black Physicians
研究了联邦政策限制医生数量对黑人学生的影响，指出削减教育支持和医学院公平承诺削弱了黑人学生进入急需地区和专业的意愿，呼吁加强入学准备和全程支持以维护公平与健康成果。
Although there is still dispute about the "surplus" of physicians, federal policies have begun to constrain the number of new entrants. Black students have been especially affected by retrenchment of federal support to education and by eroding medical school commitments to equity. Such trends undercut the demonstrable preference of black students to practice in geographic and specialty areas of greatest need. Better preparation for entry into medical school, and support through the long educational process, are necessary to preserve and extend the gains in both equity and health begun in the mid-1960s.
