Abstract
Seven years after passing a 1971 law enabling individuals without MD degrees but trained in public health to become local directors of health, the proportion of Connecticut towns covered by full-time directors had risen from 14 per cent to 38 per cent and the proportion of the population covered had risen from 46 per cent to 63 per cent. The directors of health without MD degrees were satisfied with their positions and believed they had developed good relationships with physicians, the community, and government.
