Abstract
An educational experiment was performed in which a psychiatrist and family physician met in the latter's office for a year at weekly intervals. Both participants felt the experiment was useful in teaching the addition of practical and useful psychological understanding in a directly applicable way. We are not yet in a position to estimate the cost/benefit ratio for changes in physician performance, but the early indications from this experiment suggest further field trials might be useful, not only in the private practice setting, but in many of the new family medicine programs.
