Presentation Overview
- The Program on Health Workforce Research and Policy has a long history of using data and research to shape rural health and workforce policy in the state
- We often play the role of “data agitator”
- Tracking workforce outcomes of NC’s physician training programs to show state not producing health workforce needed
- Work is interprofessional
- Active nationally and internationally
- We are keen to hear about workforce issues in the MAHEC region and how we might collaborate in the future
