Abstract
Moonlighting by house officers is a continuing problem. Despite the importance some attach to it, it has received little more than token consideration in recent years. A review of the Index Medicus back to the year 1966, under the rubric "Interns and Residents," uncovered only nine communications on the subject: four editorials,1 2 3 4 four letters to the editor,5 6 7 8 and one article that only tangentially addressed moonlighting.9 The opinions expressed pro and con were purely speculative and derived from conviction rather than from data.Debate about this emotionally charged and controversial subject has been avoided for the most part by house officers . . .
