Over 650 primary care clinicians responded to the latest survey (Round 28). Responses came from 48 states, the District of Columbia and Guam. The highest number of responses came from Washington state, Texas and Virginia (combined, over 35% of the total). Physicians (MDs and DOs) represent three-quarters of responses; nurse practitioners, 15%; and PAs, 3%; with 1% PhD, 1% PharmD, and 6% marking “other.” That majority of respondents (73%) specializes in family medicine, followed by internal medicine (12%), pediatrics (6%), geriatrics (3%) mental/behavioral health (1%), pharmacy (<1%), and other (5%). Over a fifth (22%) of respondents describe their practice as “rural,” and 11% work at a federally qualified health center (FQHC) or FQHC lookalike. 15% work in an academic or residency practice; another 6% work in a convenience care setting such as retail clinic or urgent care; and 5% practice in a direct primary care or membership-based setting. The size of respondents’ practices varies: 1-3 clinicians (29%); 4-9 clinicians (30%); and 10+ clinicians (41%).
Round 28 of the clinician survey ran April 9-13, 2021. Total responses: 657.
