本研究的主要目的是确定影响年轻初级保健医生首次就诊决定的因素。本研究采用基于县的数据集，其中包括许多健康行业特征、人口特征和经济因素，探讨了年轻初级保健医生决定在哪里行医时发挥作用的因素。在市场需求方面，发现年轻医生更倾向于在人口中等的地区就诊。供给因素也发挥了作用，因为年轻医生似乎最愿意在没有犯罪、贫困和过度税收以及学术实力雄厚的县工作。适度的生活成本也很重要。
The major objective of this study is to determine the factors influencing the first-time location decision of young primary care physicians. Employing a county-based data set that includes a host of health industry characteristics, demographic attributes, and economic factors, this study explores the factors that come into play when a young primary care physician decides where to practice medicine. In the demand side of the market, it was found that young physicians have an affinity for locating in moderately populated areas. Supply factors also come into play as young physicians appear most willing to locate in counties free of crime, poverty, and excessive taxes and where there is a strong academic presence. A moderate cost of living was also important.
