  Data on the ambulatory medical care provided during office visits to obstetrician-gynecologists are presented. Individual practice profiles are drawn for different age groups of physicians, for those in the four major geographic regions, for those in metropolitan and nonmetropolitan areas, and for those in solo and group practices. Patterns of medical care are also described according to the age of the patient and prior visit status. Descriptors of practice include patients’ reasons for visit and diagnoses rendered by physicians. Data on the utilization of patient management techniques include diagnostic services, medication therapy, and nonmedication therapy.
