title: Psychiatry in medical practice. Implications for the education of primary care physicians in the era of managed care: Part 2.
abstract: In Part 1 of this 2-part series, the epidemiology of psychiatric disorders in primary care settings was reviewed as well as evidence that indicates that these conditions often go underrecognized and undertreated by primary care physicians. Educational studies to improve the psychiatric skills of primary care physicians were also reviewed. In Part 2 of this series, a core curriculum for primary care physicians in the diagnosis and treatment of psychiatric disorders that emphasizes competency-based learning is presented. Recommendations for the development and implementation of these competency-based training modules are offered in the conclusion.
