title: [Spatial and temporal accessibility of primary health care by the patient--a survey in Dresden/Saxony].
abstract: The structural changes in outpatient medical care in eastern Germany took place by far-reaching winding up of the outpatient departments. At the same time, many doctors from these institutions set up a practice. These changes also concerned the medical care by family doctors. It is assumed that as a result of these partly extensive changes there are also changes in the accessibility of the family doctor by outpatients. We will describe in this paper the level attained in Dresden, capital of Saxony in 1995 and 1996, from the point of view of the inhabitants. Existing problems are shown. In this connection, random samples of inhabitants of Dresden were interviewed by postal survey with questions on this subject in 1995 and 1996.
