[Collaboration between the specialist in general medicine and pediatrics in the rural area with special emphasis on informational relations].
An analysis is made of the scope of health care performances provided by family practitioners and paediatricians to children in a mountainous community (of the Erzgebirge), with special regard to the informational relations existing in the community. The survey is, in the main, a two-stage interval investigation. At the first stage, a description is given of the high share the family practitioner has in the health care performances provided to children (preventive care: 100%; curative care: 95.4%, about 60% of which require the occasional collaboration with the paediatrician). At the second stage, an informational sheet is used, which not only permits complete feed-back information from the paediatrician but also increases the referral rate, multiplies the back referral rate and improves the quality of health care in general. This model is recommended for use by analogous territories.
