RESUMO
To predict demands for health services, planners must measure the impact of demographic change. This article presents a new method, the multi-sort technique, to improve analysis of the effects of multiple demographic variables. The technique is demonstrated in an analysis of the changing demand for physicians' services in Taiwan.
