  1. Show Me the Data: Coordinating Inter-professional Education (IPE) Through the Internet Abstract: Historically, the concept and practice of interdisciplinary team based care started in the United States during World War II and further advanced during President Johnson’s vision of The Great Society, in which the poor and underserved would have access to benefits of good health through the creation of community health services in those areas of greatest need (Baldwin, D., 2007). Despite the many efforts by public and private sector educational institutions to make IPE more of a reality, barriers still exist that, in part, are data driven. Previously in healthcare education planning, having access to all healthcare workforce data, patient demographics and training sites or potential training sites was non-existent, causing barriers in communication, coordination and an inability to cause positive change in patient healthcare trends. Through an internet mapping portal created by VCOM’s NCAHD, education planners, staff and other IPE stakeholders have ready access at the local, state, regional and national levels to data needed to support more efficient and effective dialogues regarding IPE. First data driven barrier: Where are current Healthcare Workforce Providers? Show Me the Data: Coordinating Interprofessional Education (IPE) Through the InternetEdward Via Virginia College of Osteopathic Medicine Ann K. Peton, MPH, Director, National Center for the Analysis of Healthcare Data (NCAHD) Within the internet portal, view the regional and state distribution of providers interactively relative to current training sites Free Internet Mapping Portal: http://gis.ncahd.org Second data driven barrier: Where are current healthcare providers’ training sites? For all healthcare providers, view training sites relative to each other and in multiple states Users can view all healthcare provider training sites at the same time or by provider type OR Have NCAHD create a map with more specific information on the training program Within the internet portal, at the sub-state level, view county and zip code level aggregates of healthcare providers and download the data for future reference as a spreadsheet Or use the portal to determine workforce within a certain distance of a current or potential training site Third data driven barrier: How to effectively target patient populations in IPE? Users can view all primary care providers (Physicians (MD,DO), Nurse Practitioners and Physicians Assistants) at the same time using the Summary Aggregate Tool OR Use the Identify Tool to learn more about the specific workforce and population details at the state, county or zip code level and download as a spreadsheet for future reference Using the Buffer Analysis Tool, users chose a distance around a point on the map (e.g. hospital, FQHC, city, etc.) and the analysis will tell them how many of a selected provider are within that proximity. By overlaying various data layers interactively on the portal, users can visualize, analyze and map potential opportunities for IPE and barriers more effectively than before. Working with the AOA, NCAHD will be updating all potentially eligible GME hospitals for the nation, by state, this year. Users can view all healthcare facilities through the portal including: hospitals, federally qualified health centers (FQHC) and rural health clinics (RHC). Users can generate maps for use in their discussions with other healthcare providers, policy makers, to support grant documents and with the public References: Baldwin, D., (2007).
