Journal of Medical Education, 50, 12 Pt 1, 1085-91, Dec 75

The usefulness of hospital charges as a means of teaching medical students the relationship between the quality and the cost of medical care provided by primary care physicians (internists and family physicians) is presented. It is believed that such case studies can aid medical students in understanding their developing role as "generators of cost." (Editor/JT)
