MEDICAI The answer to the question of whether S. C. needs to train more physicians is apparently yes according to Smith. In S. C. the following ratios exist: 97 physicians (govern mental and private) per 100,000 population and 85 physicians (private and concerned with direct patient care) per 100,000 population. This is well below the national average of 128 physicians (private and con cerned only with direct patient care) per 100,000 in the U.S. In ranking state ratios of physicians per 100,000 population, S.

In addition there are predic tions of an in-migration from other states of major proportions to S. C. Some real estate professionals think the Carolinas are headed toward a Florida-like resort area which will probably result in a high proportion of retired citizens who require more health care than younger people. There is also considerable opposition to the idea of USC building a second medical school, but USC does not propose to build a second medical school.
