[Health personnel: graduates from the medical school of the University of the Republic, Uruguay].
The article summarizes the initial findings of a study of the medical labor market, done by the Uruguayan Planning Office and cofinanced by PAHO. The survey, starting in 1880 for graduates and in 1915 for students, brings out the exponential growth of their numbers, the growing participation of women--who are now a majority in the profession--and other indicators that affect health services. The conclusion is that there should be an explicit policy on the training of medical manpower.
