Item Bowen Health Workforce Information Portal Presentation(2017-06-20) Maxey, Hannah; Norwood, ConnorThe Bowen Health Workforce Information Portal (HWIP) was developed to allow stakeholders the ability to readily discover, use, and share health workforce information. Additionally, HWIP provides reliable and timely data on Indiana’s health workforce in order to support data-driven policy development and to inform decisions at both the state and local levels. The HWIP is maintained by the Bowen Center for Health Workforce Research & Policy at the Indiana University School of Medicine in collaboration with the State of Indiana. Between May and July of 2016, the Bowen Center conducted an assessment of stakeholders’ data access and health workforce mapping needs. Based on needs identified by stakeholders, a data portal from which customized health workforce information would be accessed was prioritized. Technical and functional requirements for the Bowen Health Workforce Information Portal were established with the assistance of an advisory committee composed of executive decision makers from key state agencies, who provided ongoing input on technical and functional requirements, wireframes, and graphic design specifications. Three major functions were defined during this process: an Interactive Workforce Mapper, a Map Gallery, and a Data Download application. These functional components will provide a solid foundation from which future expansion may occur in order to provide Indiana with timely and relevant health workforce data to inform health workforce policy and planning.Item 2017 Indiana Health Workforce Collaborative Presentations(Indiana University, 2017-07-06) Bowen Center for Health Workforce Research & PolicyItem Plenary: The Quadruple Aim(2017-06-20) Adams, Jerome; Walthall, Jennifer; Harrison, Logan; VanZee, Andrew; Johnson, Sara M.This esteemed panel comprised of Indiana’s healthcare leaders presented on each aspect of the Quadruple Aim and their implications for the health workforce.Item Keynote Address: From the Space Station: What We are Learning Today about Interprofessional Education and Healthcare(2017-06-20) Brandt, BarbaraDr. Barbara Brandt, Director of the National Center for Interprofessional Practice and Education, provided the audience with an overview of the state of the U.S. health care system.
