The Capitation Study--your questions answered.
In the August 23, 1986 issue of the British Dental Journal, an account of the Capitation Study was published in the form of questions and answers. The study had just commenced and general dental practitioners were interested to learn the reasons for its conduct, who was carrying it out, how it was planned and what eventual effect it might have on dentists' professional lives. Now that the study has ended and the results have been collated and delivered to the Department of Health, readers might wish to be reminded of its aims, conduct and outcome. During the study, many practitioners asked interesting questions, some of which this article will attempt to answer.
