 al status  With:     Dr. Bernard Burnand\, MD MPH\,   Professor and Physic
 ian in Chief\, Health Care Evaluation Unit\, Institute of Social and Preve
 ntive Medicine (IUMSP) Lausanne\, Switzerland     Social inequalities in h
 ealth are found worldwide and have consequences on morbidity and mortality
 . To mitigate the consequences of social inequalities on health\, family p
 hysicians should detect patients suffering from those social inequalities\
 , and adjust their medical interventions. Therefore\, family physicians ne
 ed to know their patient social status\, and to recognize deprived patient
 s. However\, little is known about how family physicians perceive deprivat
 ion and its influence on handling care management. Our study has shown tha
 t Swiss family physicians can perceive the various dimensions of patient s

 aracteristics.     Thursday September 26\, 2013  From: 12:00-1:30 p.m.  De
