INTRODUCTION: Currently there is a shortage of general practitioners (GP), and this is expected to increase in the coming years. Despite this need, it is a specialty that is supposedly little demanded, leaving specialized training places unfilled in recent years. The purpose of this study is to present new parameters to more objectively measure the demand and the relationship between supply and demand.
METHODS: A database was used with the results of the places assigned in the MIR calls from 2002 to 2023. The calculated parameters were quoting index (CI), quote order, the order of top demand and the order of total demand of the GP specialty. The software R version 4.3.02 was used for statistical analysis.
RESULTS: The specialty quotation and top demand have remained constant during the study period, while there has been a slight and progressive worsening of the total demand. Nevertheless, the total demand for Family Medicine in the last call for MIR exam was higher than that for specialties such as urology, neurology, ENT, endocrinology, oncology, intensive care medicine or neurosurgery, among others.
CONCLUSIONS: In contrast to the subjective perception of the worsening attractiveness Family Medicine in the last MIR calls, using objective parameters, we found that the attractiveness of the specialty, measured as quotation (supply/demand ratio) and demand, has remained stable (with a slight worsening of total demand).
