The forecasted share of practicing General Practitioners (GPs) in the US from 2024 to 2028 shows a gradual decline, starting at 11.33% in 2024 and falling to 11.19% by 2028. Comparing these figures to the data preceding 2024, we observe a consistent contraction in the share of GPs relative to total physicians. This downward trend represents an average annual reduction of 0.31% over five years (CAGR). Monitoring these subtle year-on-year declines is crucial for understanding the evolving landscape of healthcare provision.
Future trends to watch for:
- The impact of policy changes on GP recruitment and retention.
- Innovations in telemedicine altering the dynamics of GP services.
- Shifts in patient preferences influencing general practice demand.
