Chairman. I would like to address myself particularly to one further phase of what is going on and how medicine is trying to help itself. police itself. and serve the Nation. It is a known fact that we still have the same proportion of physicians to patients in the United States in round numbers nowgenerally about 1 to 1.150that we had in 1949. whereas the services and proportions of physicians to patients in other countries around the world has dropped remarkably due to emigration and the outflow of trained physicians. In fact. we use about 15 percent of foreign medical graduates in order to provide the services and continue the quality medical care to our people. as the demand for services increases. But the schools themselves are developing an educational plan throughout the Nation.
