General practice, ethnicity and health services delivery
This paper explores the inter-relationships between the conventional model of general medical practice, a society undergoing the transition from one essentially homogenous to one that is heterogeneous in composition, and the effects that these changes may have on the mechanisms for the determination and delivery of health care. It is argued that the changing circumstances highlight the inappropriateness of the conventional medical model to primary health care and that an alternative approach for providing care is required.
