ARF does not include data specific to DOs providing patient care by specialty. As a result, used patient care specific numbers for MDs in primary care, but not for DOs.

Intended to determine the percent of Physician Assistants in primary care, but ARF data on PAs in primary care is not recent (2003).

Intended to analyze ARF data for advanced practice nurses, but ARF data was not recent (CNMs 2003 and NPs 2001).
