Slides from STFM 2020 conference presentation on team-based care and staffing ratios of medical assistants to clinicians. We illustrate the spectrum of staffing ratios seen in teaching clinics nationwide when it comes to clinician-medical assistant teamlets. Examples from actual clinics are used to highlight the level of team-based care that can be achieved when the ratio is >1, 1:1, and 1:2. We then discuss next steps for improving team-based care with teamlets in teaching clinics, and introduce tools and resources for advocating for increased staffing.
