With:

听

Dr. Bernard Burnand, MD MPH,

Professor and Physician in Chief, Health Care Evaluation Unit, Institute of Social and Preventive Medicine (IUMSP) Lausanne, Switzerland

听

Social inequalities in health are found worldwide and have consequences on morbidity and mortality. To mitigate the consequences of social inequalities on health, family physicians should detect patients suffering from those social inequalities, and adjust their medical interventions. Therefore, family physicians need to know their patient social status, and to recognize deprived patients. However, little is known about how family physicians perceive deprivation and its influence on handling care management. Our study has shown that Swiss family physicians can perceive the various dimensions of patient social status, although heterogeneously, according partly to their own characteristics.
