Writing Prescriptions for the Health Care Workforce

03/01/2010
| BY Marc S. Miller Ph.D.

Today is the start of a two-day meeting that both draws on the experience of the National Fund for Workforce Solutions and could provide important suggestions on how the Fund and its affiliates could move forward on a policy agenda to help low-wage employees succeed and businesses compete. Called Rx for the Health Care Workforce, the meeting’s goal is to address a central challenge to the potential of the nation’s health care system to deliver affordable, accessible care: the need for a skilled health care workforce, particularly on the front lines of care.

The National Fund has prepared by creating a policy packet that provides key materials to help summarize the National Fund, the principles on which the National Fund is based and the policy implications that stem from them, and other supporting documents. We have also begun to use these materials to raise awareness of the National Fund and supportive policy directions.
