Podiatric utilization referral patterns at an Army medical center.

Abstract:

:Presented is the first descriptive data on a large military Podiatry Clinic supporting largely combat troops. Data consist of initial podiatric problems of soldiers and other beneficiaries of podiatric care. Demographic, physician referral patterns, and other pertinent summarized survey information of outpatient utilization at the Podiatry Clinic, Madigan Army Medical Center, Fort Lewis, Washington, are examined. Findings are based on new and initial consult referrals from the month of November 1988. The results indicated that some clinics needed inservices and further education concerning podiatric care. This study has led to the implementation of changes which have resulted in better and more timely patient care.
