The |Physician |Payment |Review |Commission |in |1992 |directly |increased |financial
|reimbursement |to |clinicians |who |provide |primary |care. |Coupled |with |a |shortage |of

|preparing |primary |care |physicians. |Competition |from |nonphysicians |increased
|coincidentally |as |professionals |from |other |disciplines |stepped |up |to |meet |the |needs.
Nonphysicians |have |had |increasing |success |at |providing |primary |care |and |have |been
|shown |to |be |safe |and |effective.
