In the second issue of the Annals, the editorial “Two Cheers for Ecology” by Dr. Kerr L. White (Ann Fam Med 2003;1:67–69) contained three errors. On page 67, the first sentence of the second paragraph should have read: “Fryer et al’s study begins by illuminating the possibilities for enlightening health policy by means of the ecology model.” On page 68, the paragraph that begins at the bottom of the first column should have said that the International Classification of Primary Care has been available for almost 2 decades, rather than 2 years. On page 69, the references cited in the last complete sentence in the first column should have been 16 and 17, not 17 and 18. Corrected full-text and PDF versions of this editorial have been posted on the Annals Web site. The current online versions therefore depart from the version published in the print version of the journal.
In the article by Kevin Fiscella et al, “Do HMOs Affect Educational Disparities in Health Care” (Ann Fam Med 2003;1:90–96), Minnesota was inadvertently attached to the University of Rochester in the credit line for Dr. Fiscella. The correct state is New York.
The Publisher regrets the errors.
