This publication is the eighth in the General Practice Series produced by the General Practice Statistics and Classification Unit, a Collaborating Unit of the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare and the University of Sydney. It reports the results of the third year of the BEACH program, April 2000 to March 2001.
