AB: A program of health education was instituted in 1974 in three
counties of Appalachian Maryland, beginning in fifth grade
and designed eventually to include sixth and seventh grades.
The first phase was a workshop for approximately 165 teachers
designed to take them through the same learning experiences
that they would provide to their own students. Results of a
questionnaire administered to the teachers at the end of the
workshop are presented. At the beginning of the year, a 54-item
test of knowledge about the lungs and respiratory system was
administered to the fifth grade pupils; it was readministered
at the end of the year. Mean scores for the group increased from
19 to 27. This gain was judged to be statistically significant.
Parents of the children also replied to a questionnaire about
their attitudes and opinions. The responses to this questionnaire
are presented. In general, the questionnaires elicited very
favorable responses. (CTM).

AB: Routine transmission of electrocardiograms and their computer
interpretation via long-distance telephone lines has been
proven feasible in the automated electrocardiogram project
of the Missouri Regional Medical Program. Though this pilot
project, the first on a state-wide basis, is still viewed as
an applied research effort rather than a service, such biotelemetry
is rapidly gaining acceptance as a medium to bring modern medicine,
through modern technology, to bothurban and remote rural
areas. The computer executes all the wave measurements and
calculations with incredible speed. It takes over a boring,
repetitive part of the physician's work. However, it can only
follow the instructions of the diagnostic program, compiled
by expert cardiologists.

AB: An automated computer network for analyzing electrocardiograms
is operated by the Missouri Regional Medical Program. The
system is based at the Medical Computer Center of Missouri
University's Columbia Campus. Cardiac Data Acquisition
Stations are located in physician's offices and hospitals
as far away as 300 miles. Normal long-distance telephone lines
are used for bidirectional communications. Different settings
are chosen deliberately for this first pilot project. They
range from a General Practitioner's office in a remote rural
area to a University Medical Center. The system is a replica
of that developed by the U.S. Public Health Service.

AB: The primary objective of this project was to design a responsive
environment using a computer-controlled organ for children
to learn music principles. Three secondary objectives set
in the development of this environment were to create the means
for: 1) entering, storing, and replaying complex music; 2)
viewing the time-space relationships inherent in music;
3) controlling and manipulating music. A computer-controlled
electronic concert organ was programmed to enable a wide variety
of musical composition manipulation from changing key to
synthesizing musical parts. Line drawings on a graphics scope
displayed music information that could be redrawn at will.
Music manipulation was accomplished with keyboard, computer
terminal, and lightpen buttons. Response from 13 children
ages 4-12 and a few adults was very favorable--the graphics
scope being especially successful for grasping correlation
of parts of a score. The developmental basis of the system shows
great potential for generating data to compare with data gathered
from traditional teaching methods. (JH).

TI: Emergency!! A core curriculum for continuing education in
emergency care. Lincoln (NB): Nebraska Regional Medical
Program; 1975. 83 p
AB: Intended as a guide for developing emergency medical-care
training, these six curriculum outlines have been used and
adapted to the personnel development needs of both the rural
community hospital and the large metropolitan hospital.
The outlines are preceded by a discussion of the principles
of learning by John George, who emphasizes the importance
of the learner's direct involvement and participation at
all levels of curriculum planning and implementation. Each
outline then presents a broad objective for every subtopic,
a summary outline of content for that part of the program, and
a list of behavioral objectives to be completed. The first
of six outlines covers general information on emergency medical
services including studies in the organization and staffing
of the emergency room, the communications, policies and protocol,
and legal considerations. Outlines 2, 3, 4, and 5 cover emergency
care for patients with respiratory problems, with cardiac
problems, in trauma, and involved in other medical emergencies.
Finally, the guide concludes with study outlines in the special
categories of burn therapy, pediatric emergencies, obstetrical
emergencies, and psychiatric emergencies. (BM).

TI: Framework for evaluation of the proposals submitted to the
New Jersey Regional Medical Program. New Brunswick (NJ):
Rutgers, the State University, Bureau of Economic Research;
1968. 63 p
AB: Each of nine proposals submitted to the New Jersey Regional
Medical Program for funding are reviewed and methods for their
evaluation are suggested. A brief, general discussion of
the difficulties encountered in estimating costs and quantifying
the benefits of the projects is followed by examinations of
the individual projects. Benefit-cost analysis attempts
to identify cost and benefit components of a given proposal
and to compare them. This analysis necessitates measurement
of all pertinent variables in terms of a common denominator,
usually dollar units. Some of the individual proposals described
include: programs designed to train registered nurses in
intensive coronary care in courses arranged to embrace both
teaching and clinical experience for trainees; an external
cardiopulmonary resuscitation training program which would
train a variety of medical and nonmedical personnel in two
stages; a training program in the technique of coronary cineangiography
for four cardiologists or cardiovascular surgeons; a service
and research project to evaluate the status of 1,000 New Jersey
patients with implanted pacemakers; and a program for establishing
recognized tumor conference boards within New Jersey hospitals
designed to improve patient care directly.

conducted a service to provide photocopies of articles on
cancer topics within twenty-four hours after receiving telephone
requests for information from Central Washington physicians.
AIM-TWX was utilized as the initial source of references whenever
possible, and its benefit as such was evaluated. A sample of
requests showed AIM-TWX to have reduced the total work time
per search; moreover, when it was used, AIM-TWX retrieved
more than 70% of the articles selected to be sent. Physician
response indicated that the service was both needed and appreciated.
Further investigation by a similar information service is

AB: A comprehensive statement and presentation of data pertaining
to fifteen Iowa health manpower occupations are made for units
of State and Federal Government, health and professional
organizations, health planners, and lay groups involved
in health and other socioeconomic planning activities. The
industrialization of Iowa with attendant decline in the importance
of agriculture has led to population shifts to the cities,
concentrating health services into larger, more economical
units. Health professionals and support personnel are also
becoming scarce in rural areas but their regional concentration,
coupled with improvements in transportation and communication,
make possible a wider spectrum of health care than could have
been provided in the past. This suggests that policy decisions
should be made on the basis of the total functioning of the health
industry. (MS).

TI: Health care, health and illness behavior of American Indians
in the state of Maine. Augusta (ME): Maine's Regional Medical
Program Research and Evaluation Service; 1971. 214 p
AB: This research monograph reports findings based on studies
conducted by Maine's Regional Medical Program Research and
Evaluation Service from interviews of 90 families in Indian
communities. The report covers self-evaluation of health,
patterns and sources of medical care, attitudes toward health
care, perception of services, and survey results. The data
shows that over three-fourths of the families have various
health and medical problems which need immediate attention.
These problems range from chronic medical conditions and
dental care needs to inadequate physical and sanitary conditions.
Medical problems are seen as being closely related to poverty,
lack of services and previous illness. The multitude of health
and health-related problems faced by American Indian families
are further accentuated by the present health care system.
Ill health of the poor is accentuated by high medical costs,
inequitable distribution of health personnel and facilities
and a loosely integrated system of health care delivery. A
high percentage of the families are receptive to proposed
services and facilities. (Author/WS).

TI: Health care, health and illness behavior of low income families

Program Research and Evaluation Service; 1971. 223 p
AB: This study on health care and health and illness of low income
families is based on findings from interviews with 301 low-income
families in the state of Maine. The findings show that a majority
of the families have various health or medical problems which
need immediate attention. These problems range from dental
care and chronic medical conditions to inadequate physical
and sanitary conditions. These families lack access to medical
services and facilities and show a low utilization of existing
services. Many of the families use folk-medicines and remedies
for health care. Lack of financial resources is the primary
reason reported for lack of accessibility to a doctor. A direct
relationship was found between socio-economic status and
health and illness behavior patterns. A very high proportion
of the families appear to be receptive to proposed services
and facilities such as health screening programs and community
health centers or clinics. (Author/WS).

Dakota University, State-wide Educational Services; 1974.
80 p
AB: Additional support was provided by the South Dakota Regional
Medical Program and the South Dakota State Department of Health.
The South Dakota Core Curriculum Project involving the career
ladder approach to health manpower training, which began
in 1970, had seven objectives including the following: (1)
To organize a Health Manpower Council for the entire State;
(2) to define the areas of basic commonality among the various
training programs; and (3) to develop a core curriculum for
health manpower training on a statewide basis. Over a 3-year
period, the Health Manpower Council (70 representatives
from educational, health-care, and related institutions),
through the work of its eight subcommittees and three council
workshops, developed a core curriculum. This curriculum
allows a student ultimately to possess a foundation of knowledge
and skills on which to build occupational mobility and permit
an upward academic pursuit. (The appendix, comprising three-fourths
of this report, contains the curriculum's topical content
outline and 785 measurable behavioral objectives. The content
is in two segments: (1) Primary level--that collection of
fundamental tasks, skills, knowledge, and attitudes common
to all health manpower training/education curricula--which
includes three units: Health Care Delivery System, Introduction
to Health Science, and Emergency Medical Care; and (2) secondary
level--that collection which is common to more than one type
of curricula--which includes six areas: Anatomy and physiology,
chemistry, interpersonal relationships, microbiology,
nutrition, and public health and health-care delivery. )

medical experience and civilian health personnel to obtain
advanced standing in health education programs in Ohio were
surveyed in 1970-71. Thirty-five career areas are summarized,
telling if they have a plan to have equivalency and/or proficiency
examinations, based on responses gathered from professional
associations and educational institutions. Small community
colleges and technical schools have more such programs in
operation or planned than do universities, colleges, and

Library, State University of New York at Buffalo, was established
June 1970 through a three-year grant from the Lakes Area Regional
Medical Program, Inc. Analysis of two samples of user request
forms yielded results which significantly substantiate
findings in prior biomedical literature utilization studies.
The findings demonstrate comparable utilization patternsby

AB: This project was conducted and administered jointly by the
Student Health Organization of Chicago and the Presbyterian-St.
Luke's Hospital, Chicago.The Student Health Projects (SHPs)
were conceived more than 3 years ago by students in the health
sciences as a primary step in their efforts to enhance the quality
of their educational experience. The Chicago Student Health
Project was devised, organized, and directed by members of
the Student Health Organization. The format of this report
is as follows: an introduction concerning the implications
of the project for students; a background note discussing
the implications of the summer's work for the Regional Medical
Program; then an overview of some of the problems faced by the
project is presented, dealing in depth with the black/white
confrontation. The body of the report consists of two sections,
the first composed of reports on the community sites where
the students worked and the second an analysis of the work performed
at a number of hospital sites. The final section presents a
brief analysis of some selected characteristics of the participating
students. (Author/PG).

matter, techniques,demonstrations presented to medical
and paramedical personnel in a 1-week course offered at the
New Mexico Pulmonary Center on the diagnostic evaluation
of and the use of the most recent therapeutic techniques for
children with chronic respiratory disorders. The manual's
five sections are each divided into several content areas.
Approximately one-third of the content is presented in outline
form while the remainder is discussed in more detail and includes,
in some instances, references, diagrams, and charts. The
five sections with some representative subdivisions are
as follows: (1) Basic Clinical Evaluation (Laboratory Evaluation
and Pediatric Skin Testing by the Scratch Method); (2) Clinical
Syndromes (The Mechanics of Ventilation and Respiratory
Allergies in Children); (3) Acute Respiratory Emergencies
(Acute Respiratory Failure and Mechanical Ventilation of
the Lungs); (4) Supportive Therapy (Psychological Aspects
of Children with Chronic Pulmonary Disease and Living with
Cystic Fibrosis); and (5) Inhalation Therapy (The Principles
of Inhalation Therapy and Inhalation Therapy for Infants).
The appendix comprises about one-half of the manual and includes
information on the Pulmonary Center; hospital aids such as
a pediatric emergency cart; postural drainage instructions;
airway obstruction; inhalation therapy; and pulmonary function
aids such as the predicted values for maximum breathing capacity
in children. (EM).

1972-1976
AB: These volumes of weekly Newsletters discusses significant
developments in health care delivery in Connecticut from
the spring of 1970 to the fall of 1972. The first issue of the
Newsletter had the purpose of reporting on matters of concern
to the health and welfare of the people of Connecticut, with
special emphasis on those activities of the Connecticut Regional
Medical Program (CRMP). The 91 issues contained in the volume
present subject material of two types: the administrative
functioning of CRMP and its parent organization, the Regional
Medical Programs Service; and program activities throughout
Connecticut which have been stimulated and / or supported
by CRMP. The program activities represent the fulfillment
of the program goals of CRMP, which emerged from the work of
nine Statewide task forces examining the health care system
of Connecticut and making a series of recommendations. Each
local or regional demonstration discussed in the Newsletters
has been developed to fulfill one or more of CRMP's program
goals. An index is presented as an aid for identifying two or
more letters discussing the development of a given program
activity. Portions of this document are not fully legible.

County-Long Beach Health Consortium, Inc.; 1976. 36 p
AB: Developed by a regional health consortium, this plan defines
the purpose of planning for consumer health education; explores
the implications of recent legislation and historical precedents
on consumer health education and consumer participation
in the health planning process; documents current activities;
develops priorities for future efforts; discusses current
problems in the system; and recommends actions necessary
to insure adequacy and quality in consumer health education.
The plan also includes an analysis of inventories of current
or potential activities or providers of consumer health;
mortality and morbidity data for the Orange County planning
region; documentation of existing planning and coordination
efforts; discussion of coordinated activities promoting
innovation and creative approaches, barriers to current
health care and health education utilization, and the need
for a comprehensive consumer health education dissemination
system. The need and possible methods to insure participation
from consumers who represent consumer/community-based
interests are also addressed. It is recommended that a single
agency be designated to plan, coordinate, and implement a
comprehensive consumer health education system with appropriate
level of funding to discharge responsibilities. (Author/BM).

TI: Hospital library administration. Salt Lake City: Intermountain
Regional Medical Program, Network for Continuing Education;
1971. 31 p. (Hospital library handbooks, no. 1.)
AB: The objectives of a hospital are to improve patient care, while
the objectives of a hospital library are to improve services
to the staff which will support their efforts. This handbook
dealing with hospital administration is designed to aid the
librarian in either implementing a hospital library, or improving
services in an existing medical library. The librarian's
tasks are identified and discussed under two major categories:
(1) planning, which involves organizing, financing, and
budgeting for library services; and (2) control, which includes
the development of annual reports, policies and procedures,
and coordination and leadership. A glossary of library terms,
a checklist of patient care standards, and hospital library
standards are appended. (AP).

TI: Hospital library development. Salt Lake City: Intermountain
Regional Medical Program; 1972. 50 p. (Hospital library handbooks,
no. 2)
AB: Addressed to the administrator of the hospital as well as the
librarian, this handbook covers aspects of library service
policy and long-range planning. While hospitals of all sizes
are discussed, a special effort is made to cover problems of
small hospitals (17 to 100 beds) in sparsely-settled regions.
Contents: The library as a clinical service, Standards and
accreditation (including reprints of standards of the JOINT
Commission on Accreditation of Hospitals and of the Connecticut
RMP Library Services); Balanced investment and level of service
output; Audiovisual services; Regional (and national) affiliations
for library service; Gifts; 24-Hour access; Centralized
libraries and/or station collections; Multipurpose learning
facilities; Library services to patients. Quotes from leaders
in hospital library development are included, as well as references
to the literature. Appendix gives addresses of resource libraries,
Regional Medical Libraries, and national organizations;
and a reprint of the evaluation questionnaire for libraries
used by the Joint Commission on Accreditation of Hospitals.
However, emphasis of the text is on cost-benefit factors rather
than on the specifics of qualifying for accreditation. (Author).

TI: Printed materials: selection and acquisition. Salt Lake
City: Intermountain Regional Medical Program; 1972. 63 p.
(Hospital library handbooks, no. 3)
AB: Regardless of the size of the hospital, the librarian must
acquire information for staff members by whatever means possible.
Large hospitals with large staff, more information requests
per week, and a better economic base will purchase a greater
number of information materials. Small hospitals will purchase
only the most basic reference books and bibliographies, and
will depend on interlibrary loans to supply specific items
for one-time use by individuals. Whether the librarian is
purchasing or borrowing, she will need to know what types of
materials are available (indexes, abstracts, texts, journals,
reference books, etc. ) and what kind of knowledge each type
of material will provide. A loan request sent to another library
includes the same descriptive data as a purchase order sent
to a publisher or to a book agent. This handbook is mainly concerned
with instruction for selecting and purchasing library materials.
However, effective service through interlibrary loans requires
just as much knowledge of basic bibliography: the world of
books and journals and other information media. (Handbook
No. 2 is available as ED 066 206) (Author).

AB: This set of guidelines was written to provide a systematic
explanation of the process of evaluation applied to Regional
Medical Programs, as required by Public Law 89-239. Goals
of the programs are the improvement of health care of patients
suffering from heart disease, cancer, stroke and related
diseases and improvement in the practice of health professionals.
The first step in evaluation is the development of objectives--both
immediate and long range. The second phase is the selection
or design of measuring instruments or the design of other procedures
to collect data that will lead to evidence for evaluation.
Next comes the collection of data--from the health professional
as a participant in a learning experience and as practitioner,
and also from society. The fourth phase is analysis of the data;
then judgment is made of how well objectives have been met.

Population growth in central Florida has increased the need
for continuing education for trauma nurses. A project was
undertaken in 1974 to develop a comprehensive continuing
education program on trauma nursing for registered nurses
that can be a prototype for the state, and to implement the program
in Orange, Seminole, and Osceola counties. Operational objectives
were to: (1) develop a central organization and management
unit that will plan and give direction to the project as well
as organize, coordinate, and evaluate the project activities;
(2) develop a modular curriculum of 80 hours on trauma nursing;
(3) plan and implement activities for a minimum of three trauma
nursing programs in the three counties, to enroll at least
45 nurses; (4) develop testing and evaluation tools for the
curriculum and the overall program; and (5) conduct an ongoing
evaluation of the program. An extensive progress report is
provided. A bibliography is included. (MSE).

AB: Early in 1977, the Regional Medical Programs, established
in 1965, ceased to function, after ups and down of agency prognosis
for a period of more than four years, and several threatened
cuttings off of funding from HEW. Among these agencies was
the Illinois Regional Medical Program, serving the entire
state. Although not unique to the IRMP, among RMP's across
the country, that agency was unusual in performing, both through
core staff and funding programs, many activities in the sphere
of health information. This paper attempts to trace some of
the more salient aspects of the Health Information activities
of IRMP, with a view toward development of inputs to the modelling
processes relating to health data management and dissemination
among health planners extant today. The Health Systems Agencies,
established in 1975, have replaced the functions of the RMP's,
the Comprehensive Health Planning Agencies and the Hill-Burton
Agencies. In addition other organizations have been developed
and have evolved which may utilize the experiences of IRMP
to benefit health planning within the areas for which they
are responsible. Programs of IRMP included published and
unpublished materials, from monographs to working papers,
and involved levels of sophistication from complex geographic
analyses to simple tabular compilations to be used by local
health planning groups at all levels. Prepared in cooperation
with Illinois University at the Medical Center, Chicago,
School of Public Health. Sponsored in part by Health Resources
Administration, Hyattsville, MD.

AB: Members of the Veterans Administration (VA) Center, Ft. Harrison,
Montana, and the Mountain States Regional Medical Program
met with members of the Helena Indian Alliance and the Montana
United Indian Association to discuss total services available
to all veterans and their beneficiaries. Indian and VA officials
promoted the two-way exchange of ideas on the dynamics of Indian
culture on health care. The topics of five panel discussions
were: "The Indian Stereotype and How it Affects Health Care",
"V. A. Hospital and G.I. Benefits", "Special Needs of the Urban
Indian (Landless, Off-reservation and Federally Recognized)",
"Special Needs of the Reservation Indian", and "What Indian
Health Service Offers and Coordination With Other Health
Services". Veterans Administration officials explained
the requirements and procedures for taking advantage of all
the services available to Indians. Among the specific suggestions
and recommendations for improving services were sending
pamphlets to Tribal Councils for distribution, having an
Indian veteran on each reservation to work with veterans in
identifying problems and answers, and encouraging Indian
veterans to duplicate their discharge papers at the county
court house. Further suggestions and recommendations, as
well as the minutes of planning sessions that culminated in
the workshop, are included. Veterans Administration Center,
Fort Harrison, MT contributed to the Workshop.

history and record of the Maryland Regional Medical Program,
1966-1975. Baltimore, MD: Maryland Regional Medical Program;
1975. 69 p
AB: The development of regionalized health care in Maryland from
1966 through 1975 is traced, and program activities are reviewed.
A brief historical background is offered, and organizational
structure, early planning and development, program planning
objectives, and program development for initial operations
are described. Program activities are reviewed for 1969-71;
these were centered around core units at the Johns Hopkins
University, University of Maryland, and State Health Department,
in addition to the central core unit responsible for initiating
proposals, developing cooperative arrangements among private
health care providers, establishing policy guidelines,
and providing staff assistance to local projects. Early categorical
program activities included a program of stroke care at York
General Hospital; a coronary care / closed chest cardiopulmonary
resuscitation program; a continuing education program at
Peninsula General Hospital; mass detection of heart disease
in school children by phono-cardioscan; and a cancer control
program. After 1970 amendments to P.L. 91-515, a change of
mission was undertaken. The Maryland Regional Medical Program
was organized into four divisions: central administration,
health manpower development, health care delivery, and data
collection and evaluation. Some demonstration programs
and 'mini-projects' characterizing the regional program's
influence on health care in Maryland are described. Plans
for transition from the regional format to a program of new
health system agencies throughout the State are described.
A bibliography of the regional program's publications is
included.

AB: An interactive on-line computerized renal transplant matching
system called RENTRAN, which serves the Southwest Kidney
Transplant Region is described. The region consists of one
transplant center in Arkansas, two in Oklahoma, and six in
Texas. The computer used is the DECSYSTEM-10 located in the
Medical Computing Resources Center at the University of Texas
Health Science Center at Dallas. RENTRAN participants have
remotely located standard interactive computer terminals
and gain access to the computer by dialing over normal telephone
lines. Functions provided by RENTRAN include obtaining instructions,
performing a doneor-recipient match, obtaining a list of
potential recipients, making a user comment or adding, updating
or deleting a patient record. Either long or short dialog forms
are available for inexperienced and experienced users respectively.
In the time sinceAugust 1, 1973, when the system went into production,
there have been in excess of 100 matches attempted and approximately
50 kidheys have been transplanted according to RENTRAN results.
There are about 350 recipients currently on the data base.
The system was developed with funds provided by the Texas Regional
Medical Program amd operational expenses and enhancements
are provided through a $25 per year potential-recipient patient
charge for being listed on the data base.

required of tumor registrars was developed and administered
to 33 persons, 31 of whom were employed at 25 Louisiana hospitals.
The training program was administered as a correspondence
course covering such topics as the purposes of a tumor registry
and how the registry is established; how to code information
contained on a tumor registry; and how to abstract the chart
of a cancer patient. Criterion test score results showed that
on 8 of 10 criterion tests, at least 75 percent of the students
scored 65 or higher. The methods described in the report can
be used in developing and field-testing draft training program
materials in many different subject areas. (Author).

TI: Analysis of the Regional Medical Program's model cities earmarking
process. Rockville (MD): Regional Medical Programs Service;
1973 Jun 4. 80 p. Report No.: HRP-001468 5/2
AB: Eight regional medical program (RMP) projects were analyzed
during 1972 and 1973 for their impact on model cities neighborhoods.
The eight projects represented $1 million of expenditures
and were located in Washington, D.C.; Kansas City, Kansas;
Salt Lake City, Utah; Detroit, Michigan; Kansas City, Missouri;
St. Louis, Missouri; Tampa, Florida; and Tuskegee, Alabama.
Background information was obtained on the regional medical
program and model cities earmarking process. The eight projects
were analyzed in terms of planning and development, implementation
and administration, and results and impact. The initial concept
of RMP was to provide for the rapid transfer of scientific knowledge
to the providers of health services. One major change to RMP
involved an expansion to increase the availability, enhance
the quality, and contain the rising costs of medical care.
Another significant change was a decentralization in decisionmaking
authority from national to regional program staffs. The RMP,
along with other DHEW categorical programs, was instructed
to designate a portion of its resources for model cities neighborhoods.
Judging the eight projects on the basis of establishing continuing
health services, it was determined that the RMP earmarking
process was a failure in producing substantive impact on model
cities neighborhoods. No coordination with other federally
funded or funding agencies was observed. Local agencies or
governments were not required to provide matching funds or
build into their budgets enough funds to support project operation.
The eight projects are ranked in terms of their degree of success.
Appendixes contain brief descriptions of the projects and
an example of one completed project report.

an inservice education program; suggested definition, philosophy,
and objectives of inservice education; guidelines to assist
in developing and maintaining an effective inservice education
program; and a four-step job instructor training method which
involves consecutively preparing the worker for training,
presenting the job to the worker, try-out performance, and
follow through. In the section devoted to the aforementioned
guidelines, the following topics are discussed: useful principles
in beginning the development of such a program; group process;
characteristics of good inservice education programs; evaluating
the effectiveness of inservice education programs; planning
a program; ideas for program types; and descriptions of methods
that may be used to implement the inservice program. (DM).

TI: Health aide education and utilization: a task identification
study. Final report. Vol. 1. Kalamazoo (MI): Homemakers Home
and Health Care Services, Inc.; 1974. 342 p
AB: Also sponsored by the Louisiana Regional Medical Program.
A study of the Licensed Practical Nurse (LPN), Nurse Aide (NA),
and Homemaker-Home Health Aide (H-HHA) occupations was conducted
during 1972-73 in Metropolitan Washington, D.C. Questionnaires
were administered to 600 LPNs, NAs, and H-HHAs in 30 health
facilities who rated the frequency and importance of 346 tasks.
Usable questionnaires numbered 492. A representative sample
of employers also rated the tasks for each job title. The data
revealed considerable task overlap between job titles and
between patient care settings, and much agreement between
job titles concerning the frequency and importance of task
performance. On this basis, the study constructed an outline
for an experience based core curriculum containing four modular
units of instruction and organized to provide exit points
for various job titles leading up to the LPN level. The study
also developed a model for community-wide involvement in
aide education and utilization to maximize the career mobility
and effective use of aides. Appendixes comprising 125 pages
provide: a brief glossary; an inventory of hospitals, nursing
homes, and providers of home health care in the Metropolitan
Washington area; the employer and employee task inventory
questionnaires; data cross-tabulations by patient-care
setting, shift, education, and years of experience; and a
bibliography. (JR).

Final report.
SO: Austin TX: Texas Hospital Association; 1975. 119 p
AB: The implementation of the Telephone Information and Education
System (TIES) as a statewide program available to Texas hospitals
is discussed. The primary objective of TIES is to deliver quality
educational and informational programs to hospital employees
at the most critical point, their job site. Initial efforts
in the development of TIES involved surveying member hospitals
of the Texas Hospital Association to identifycontinuing
education needs, evaluate educational programming, field
test a telephone conference system, and implement a financially
self-substaining telephone information and education system.
Through the grant for the implementation of TIES, administered
by the Texas Hospital Association and funded by the Regional
Medical Program of Texas, a model was devised for use in the
implementation of the statewide telephone conferencing
network. The Tesas Hospital Association is to administer
TIES and serve as the central focal point for coordination
and operation of the system and will match identified continuing
education requirements and information needs of participating
institutions to educational and informational resources.
Recommendations are offered to facilitate the successful
implementation of TIES. An appendix contains exhibits relating
to the development and implementation of the system includeing
guidelines, questionnaires, a lecturer's information booklet,
and a manual for system management by objectives.

TI: Conference on Human Program Development: Final evaluation
report; 1971 Aug 1-5. [place, publisher unknown]; 1971. 59
p
AB: An evaluation summary of a conference designed to identify
and reduce the barriers to health planning is presented. A
survey of 74 regional medical programs and comprehensive
health planning agencies revealed eight impediments to effective
health program planning: (1) ineffective goal and purpose
setting; (2) a pattern of crisis intervention rather than
preventive or long-range planning; (3) ineffective or insufficient
community involvement; (4) unsatisfactory evaluation methods;
(5) poor measurement of health status and health care; (6)
the lack of interagency coordination; (7) the lack of quantifiable
data available on health resources and needs; and (8) a reluctance
to change since vested interests stand to lose by it. Eighteen
agencies were represented at the conference and studied six
techniques which would hopefully reduce the barriers to planning.
Of the agencies using the techniques, 100 percent reported
implementing the nominal group process, the program planning
process, and the conflict resolution successfully; 83 percent
using the matrix organization reported success; the delphi
technique was successful for 73 percent; and the evaluation
technique was reported successful by 50 percent of the staffs
attempting to apply it. It is considered that the conference
objectives were met to the extent that barriers were reduced.
The survey questionnaires are appended, and tabular data
and illustrations are provided.

SO: Chapel Hill (NC): University of North Carolina; 217 p
AB: A case study of the uses of information in the North Carolina
Regional Medical Program (NCRMP), Durham, is reported. The
study objectives included: 1) Determining the adequacy of
available information in meeting health planning objectives;
2) Determining the capacity of a health planning agency to
utilize and adapt available information in fulfilling planning
requirements; 3) Identifying approaches by which the utility
of planning information can be enhanced; and 4) Identifying
methods useful in developing planning information. Three
major phases of the study included: 1) An extensive literature
review which examined theuse of information in planning,
methods of studying information use, and methods by which
planning information can be developed; 2) A review of both
NCRMP's administrative organization and its planning and
decision making; and 3) An analysis of information use in the
NCRMP by examination of certain historical events and through
assessment of personnel regarding their perceived participation
in planning and their use of information during such planning.
A conceptual framework of the use of information in halth planning,
developed to aid the analysis ofthis latter phase, is discussed.
Flow charts and graphs, results and recommendations, references,

AB: Information support system project activities of the Susquehanna
Valley Regional Medical Program in Pennsylvania are reported.
The information support system (ISS), developed to assist
regional medical programs (RMP's) in their program planning
and review activities, is based on a conceptual view of the
RMP as a facilitator of change. It is a short-term evaluative
technique and encompasses three major premises: (1) change
should occur where problems exist in the health care system;
(2) change should involve problems with which providers and
the public have a mutual concern; and (3) RMP's are most likely
to be successful in facilitating change in those situations
where actual health care needs coincide with needs for change.
Respondents who evaluated the ISS in the Susquehanna Valley
Regional Medical Program identified nine health care problems
or issues: physician shortage and maldistribution, inadequate
third-part payment mechanisms, need for primary care services,
need for consumer education, need for coordinated planning
of facilities and services, criticisms of comprehensive
health planning, shortage of nursing homes and poor quality
of care, problems related to paramedical personnel, and need
for an emergency medical services system. The Susquehanna
Valley Regional Medical Program is detailed in terms of program
activities developed to meet health care problems and issues.

AB: The information support system (ISS) approach to assist regional
medical programs (RMPs) in their program design and review
is reported. The ISS approach to evaluation is problem-oriented
and makes use of document analysis and interviews with influential
health care leaders and with RMP staff members. Nine major
health care problems in the Nassau and Suffolk Counties RMP
in New York are examined: (1) the lack of coordination in the
planning and delivery of health care; (2) the high cost of health
care; (3) the need for primary care facilities and services;
(4) inadequate quality of care; (5) inadequate transportation
to health services; (6) the shortage and maldistribution
of primary care physicians; (7) the shortage and poor quality
of care in nursing homes; (8) the need for consumer education;
and (9) the need for specific health services. The general
findings of studies of eight RMPs are presented and relate
to the identification of problems, the degree of problem orientation,
and the apparent degree of effectiveness of local RMPs. It
is noted that the suggestions for program development are
not included due to the 'projected phaseout' of RMPs. Supporting

AB: Information Support System (ISS) activities in the Indiana
Regional Medical Program (IRMP) are reported. ISS is a short-term
problem-oriented program evaluation technique designed
to assist regional medical programs (RMPs) in their program
planning and review. This technique is based on a conceptual
model of the RMP as a facilitator of change and attempts to help
RMPs decide which changes should be fostered. The assessment
indicates: (1) a significant contribution to the improvement
of the distribution and utilization of physicians and to the
development of paramedical personnel; (2) a limited response
to the need for consumer education; (3) little involvement
in the resolution of transportation problems; (4) a substantial
contribution to improved coordination of health planning;
(5) strong support of paramedical personnel in the Family
Nurse Practitioner program, but an apparent need to address
licensure and certification problems; (6) no program activity
in the treatment of alcohol and drug abuse; (7) substantial
improvement of communication and coordination among health
care agencies; (8) no involvement in the development of more
effective third-party payment mechanisms; (9) an outstanding
effort toward a coordinated emergency medical system; (10)
the development of home care services in Indianapolis, but

TI: Problem-oriented assessment of the Tennessee Mid-South
Regional Medical Program. 1973 Mar. Nashville: Tennessee
Mid-South Regional Medical Program; 1973. 68 p. Report No.:
PC A04/MF A01
AB: A summary of the Tennessee Mid-South Regional Medical Program
information support system is presented. This short-term
program evaluation technique is based on a conceptual model
of the regional medical program as a facilitator of change
and attempts to help such programs decide what kinds of change
they should foster. The information support system approach
to this decisionmaking and evaluative process is problem-oriented
and incorporates the opinions of leaders within the regional
health care system. This approach is generated by three premises:
(1) changes should occur where problems exist in the health
care system; (2) changes should occur around problems with
which providers and the public have a manifest concern; and
(3) regional medical programs are most likely to be successful
in facilitating changes when real health care needs coincide
with needs for changes. Using this conceptual model, the information
support system assesses the effectiveness of a regional medical
program in terms of the extent to which its program is designed
to promote regional cooperative efforts to solve those problems
of major concern to leaders within the health care delivery
system. Seven major health care problems in the region are
identified: lack of coordination within the health care system,
inadequate access to care, hospital problems, manpower shortage
and maldistribution, lack of health care for indigents, need
for consumer education, and inadequacy of emergency services.

Program. 1973 Mar. Rockville (MD): Health Services and Mental
Health Administration; 1973 69 p
AB: Information Support System (ISS) project activities in the
Lakes Area Regional Medical Program (LARMP) in western New
York are reported. ISS is a short-term program evaluation
technique designed to assist regional medical programs (RMPs)
in their program planning and review. RMPs are most likely
to succeed in facilitating change in situations where real
health care needs coincide with needs for change as perceived
by and wanted by leaders of influence within the health care
system. The procedures of ISS evaluation comprise document
analysis and interviews with health care leaders and the RMP
staff members. The evaluation summary reveals: (1) a need
in the Lakes area for better communication among health care
providers and the promotion of that communication by LARMP's
workshops and liaison activities; (2) no endeavors in health
care cost control, insurance, or prepayment mechanisms;
(3) a weak response to the urban ambulatory care crisis, but
excellent program development in rural areas; (4) no visible
involvement in alleviating the shortage of nursing homes,
extended care facilities, and alternative housing for the
elderly; (5) a concern with increasing the supply of health
professionals, but a need to address the issue of the licensure
of physician's assistants; and (6) criticisms resulting
from the lack of communication and joint planning. It is concluded
that the LARMP needs to strengthen its involvement with provider
agencies and institutions.

100 p
AB: Results of a survey of 11 institutions providing megavoltage
radiation therapy services in Alabama are presented which
indicate that a regional radiation therapy support and communications
system would be useful, accepted and feasible. The suggested
system would provide two services: assistance with treatment
planning through computerized dosimetry, and a service to
conduct routine calibration and checking of radiotherapy
equipment. The system would provide dosimetry accuracy of
plus or minus 3 percent and would be designed for future extension
to other specialities in cancer (surgery, medical oncology)
as well as to other categorical ailments such as heart, kidney,
and stroke. Analysis of such a system shows it would be self-supporting
in approximately three years. Recommendations are made for
the proposed organization and staffing of the system, and
components including software of such a dosimetry network.
An estimate of start up and operational costs is presented
in tabular format. The provision of suitable funding for Task
II of the project is discussed; Task II would include the development
of a systems analysis report furnishing operational details
and design criteria necessary for the development and implementation
of the system. Information on the role of accurate dosimetry
in the rationale of radiation therapy, survey results, and
samples of available equipment for use in the network, plus
computerized dosimetry programs for regional networks is
included in four appendices. References are listed. Portions
of this document are not fully legible. Also sponsored by the

TI: Feasibility study of the establishment of a coordinated home
health program to serve a seven county area. Vicksburg (MS):
Mercy Regional Medical Center; 1975. 63 p
AB: Also sponsored by the Mississippi Regional Medical Program.
The feasibility of establishing a coordinated, hospital-based
home health care agency in a seven-county area of west central
Mississippi is explored. Data on the Vicksburg area's population
and resources were gathered and analyzed; surveys were conducted
to assess the attitudes of local physicians and other providers;
and the services, utilization, personnel, and problems of
existing home care programs in the area were assessed. Findings
are presented on the demographic characteristics of the area,
personnel resources, attitudes of providers, home health
resources, legal requirements, and financial considerations.
It is concluded that three of the counties would not benefit
significantly from the proposed agency, two would benefit
only through the addition of physical therapy services to
existing home health programs, and two would derive significant
benefits from the agency. Supplies of nursing and other personnel
required for the agency are judged to be adequate. Favorable
attitudes expressed by public health officials suggest that
the agency will be able to obtain a certificate of need. The
hiring of a resourceful nurse supervisor who will be able to
build upon the basic interest expressed by physicians is strongly
recommended. Medicare and Medicaid reimbursement systems
are found to be adequate mechanisms for removing financial
barriers to participation in the program. The area's regional
medical center demonstrates sufficient resources and interest
to support the hospital-based agency. Tabular data are included.

TI: Community Health Education Consortia (CHEC) feasibility
study of Northeast Central Nebraska. Final report. Columbus
(NB): Platte Technical Community College; 1974. 105 p
AB: Also sponsored by the Nebraska Regional Medical Program.
This study sought to determine the extent of existing in-service
education programs in health care available in northeast
central Nebraska and to determine if there was a need for a Community
Health Education Consortium (CHEC). Two questionnaires
were developed for the study and were mailed to hospitals and
nursing homes in a 22 county area; 86% (22) of the hospitals
and 60% (28) of the nursing homes surveyed responded. Information
was gathered on hospital/nursing home facilities, patient
flow, backgrounds and responsibilities of administrators
and nursing directors, numbers of specified professional
and non-professional personnel, current in-service education
activities, and in-service education needs. It was concluded
that there was a substantial need for a CHEC that would organize
and strengthen available educational offerings. Although
hospital and nursing home expansion were projected to be minimal
in the future, licensing requirements, retirements, promotions,
and turnover were anticipated to result in continuing demand
for relevant educational programming in the health care area.
Survey instruments and related feasibility study materials
are appended. (Author/JDS).

AB: Project developed by Health Specialist Training Program
of the Utah Migrant Council. Also sponsored by the Intermountain
Regional Medical Program. The project involved 14 trainees
who were employed by the Utah Migrant Council prior to their
training with 8 trainers. Pre-determined by the basic job
descriptions for the Health Specialist, the objectives dealt
with two basic factors: trainee knowledge and trainee skills
in performing specific tasks. Areas covered by the objectives
were infection; the respiratory, circulatory, and digestive
systems; nutrition; ear; pregnancy; labor and delivery;
post partum; teeth; child development; illness in children;
migrant environment; and health education. Classroom instruction,
review sessions, consultant presentations, individual
and small group instruction, role playing, case studies,
and hands-on personal practice by the trainees were used in
the training. Daily evaluations were conducted to provide
the trainers constant feedback on a daily basis to determine
how the trainees were progressing. Mid-point and final evaluations
were conducted to determine the knowledge and skill levels
of the trainees. Daily information was obtained through review
sessions, laboratory observations and quizzes, individualized
oral reviews and quizzes, daily reports from the trainees
and trainers, attendance reports, and trainer de-briefing
sessions. Mid-point and final evaluations were obtained
via written examinations, oral questions, laboratory applications,
and group problem solving. Overall, both the trainees and
the trainers felt the project had been successful. (NQ).

AB: The Medical Library Assistance Act authorized the Regional
Medical Library Program to improve information services
in health fields, as well as other programs designed to help
the health worker. Both the RLMP and the Regional Medical Program
are based on regional cooperation to enhance the value of available
resources, and to enable health workers away from main centers
to use them. Services which Regional Medical Libraries must
supply are described. As this program develops, more than
conventional library service will be provided. Regional
Medical Programs stress the continuing education of health-related
personnel, and their need for health information; libraries
are necessarily involved in such programs. The regions of
the RMP are smaller than those of the RMLP, and the smaller regional
focus may be an advantage. Specific examples of the coordination
of library services and the library-oriented programs are
given.

Lexington (KY): Kentucky University, College of Medicine;
1977. 32 p
AB: Also sponsored by the Ohio Valley Regional Medical Program,
Lexington, Kentucky. In early 1972, a survey was taken of the
continuing education attitudes, practices, and related
needs of Kentucky physicians. A representative sample of
305 Kentucky Medical Association (KMA) members was interviewed
by telephone, with 86 percent giving complete responses.
A profile of KMA physicians was developed. It was ascertained
that there is much involvement in continuing education, although
78 percent of the respondents found themselves unable to participate
in formal continuing education as much as desired. There is
a strong preference for medical-center-based programs (for
clinical programs as opposed to medical care delivery programs)
and for self-assessment endeavors. A suprisingly high percentage
favor continuing education as a prerequisite to continued
membership on hospital staff or in KMA, to specialty recertification,
or even to relicensure. A great majority believe that physicians
should bear the costs of their continuing education. (Author/MSE).

AB: A survey of 105 Kentucky and Indiana Hospitals was made to determine
the extent and quality of library service available under
the auspices of the Ohio Valley Regional Medical Program.
Summary date on the 60hospitals with libraries are reported
here with the objective of examining the capability of these
institutions as a group to participatein the formation of
a biomedical communications network as proposed by the National
Library of Medicine. Although the data from an academic librarian's
viewpoint indicate that few hospitals have a dependable library
service, the more optimistic view is that a base-line has been
established from which to make assessments in the future for
improved hospital health science libraries. From the data
presented many obvious technical improvements could be suggested;
however, the more important conclusion to be reached from
this survey is the need for establishing some value system
on which to base priorities and to establish goals for improvement.

and research library resources and services within its area
by identifying, sharing and developing such resources and
services and (2) further inter-library cooperation, communication
and transportation of materials within the area of the Council.

hopes to inform the people in the North Country that it is willing
and able to assist in meeting these needs. An overview of the
Reference and Research Resources (3R's) Program is followed
by a presentation of the role of Xerox Corporation or University
Microfilms in information services. A representative from
International Business Machines discussed the use of computers
as library tools. The library system developed at Eastman
Kodak Company is also described. Many information systems
now in use or being studied are briefly described including:
(1) the Albany Regional Medical Program Consulting Group
for Library Service, (2) the Interuniversity Communications

AB: The value of South Carolina's regional medical program (RMP)
is assessed by the South Carolina RMP coordinator who asserts
that remedial action is needed in three areas to make the RMP
more effective: (1) financial assistance where needed by
individuals or families to procure services rather than to
provide services by governmental agencies; (2) financial
assistance to States through priority guidelines for centralized
resources; and (3) performance deficiencies in categorically
directed programs. The Federal role in the delivery of health
services is reviewed. Objectives and programs of RMP's throughout
the United States are outlined. Consideration is given to
the concept of quality equity versus equality of low quality,
the achievement of equity and quality at the local level, the
need for technical assistance at the local level for planning
and evaluation, the cooperation of RMP's with a variety of
government agencies, and RMP's as a prototype for the decentralization
of health programs. The accomplishments of RMP's throughout
the United States are examined, and supporting tabular data
are provided. The regionalization plan in South Carolina
is cited as an example of how principles incorporated in the
allied services concept can be applied through an RMP mechanism
at the State level. Activities and projects of South Carolina's
RMP are detailed. Financial information is presented on five
major activity areas of the RMP in South Carolina: manpower,
accessibility and availability of health care, regionalization
of special services, quality of medical care assurance, and
administrative costs.

AB: Expansion of the Regional Medical Program in South Carolina
(SCRMP) is discussed relative to health manpower development;
primary health care development patterns; and regionalization
of health facilities, manpower, and other resources. With
regard to health manpower and other service deficits, it is
apparent that distribution problems are of considerable
magnitude. Despite the fact that the Medical University of
South Carolina is expanding its classes in the several colleges,
a considerable time lag will occur and additional ways must
be developed to deal with professional manpower shortages.
In order for an effective regional or statewide program to
be developed, and in consideration of other program activities
now being developed or supported by Federal appropriations,
an overall coordinating body for the entire State should be
developed to which the RMP can effectively relate. A program
plan is presented which would facilitate the availability
of health services to rural areas through regionalization
of effort, health education for the public, and continuing
education for, and upgrading of, various health personnel.

Medical Program, Comprehensive Health Planning and the physician
SO: J S C Med Assoc 1970 Jun:205-21
AB: Regional medical program (RMP) and comprehensive health
planning (CHP) functions are examined in relation to the role
of practicing physicians. The objective of RMP's and CHP agencies
is to establish a framework of planning, with both private
and public support, for coordinated and comprehensive health
service at the local and State levels. Formula and project
grants for assisting State planning councils and individual
facilities within States are available through provisions
of RMP and CHP legislation. It is noted that the American Medical
Association has published a guide for physician participation
in areawide health facility planning. Bylaws of the South
Carolina RMP are outlined as they reflect the principle of
district planning and representation. Duties of local district
committees under the South Carolina RMP are delineated, and
the structure of RMP districts is illustrated. Provisions
of Circular A-95 are described as they apply to CHP agencies.
Consideration is given to the coordination of planning in
multijurisdictional areas and to grant-in-aid information.
Bylaws of the South Carolina RMP are included, and members
of the RMP's regional advisory group are listed. Projects
funded by the South Carolina RMP and CHP agencies are described.
The projects are concerned with heart disease, cancer, strokes,
chronic hemodialysis, continuing education, and informational
activities.

p.
AB: The effects of a regional approach to continuing nursing education
in Idaho, Montana, Nevada, and Wyoming are described. The
regional program utilizes the existing baccalaureate schools
of nursing in each State. In addition, the program provides
educational programs in coronary care, inhalation therapy,
stroke rehabilitation, and cancer nursing. Frequently,
these programs are co-sponsored with voluntary health agencies.
Interstate and interregional activities helped to promulgate
the expanded nursing role and ultimately the New Manpower
Project, which was directed toward encouragement of family
nurse practitioner - physician teams. Current continuing
education programs deal with topics such as nursing care audit,
quality of care mechanisms, and patient care appraisal. A
detailed report of continuing nursing education activities
within each State, including tables showing the number of
participants in each program described, is presented.

TI: Nebraska Regional Medical Program: state plan for Community
Health Education Consortia (CHEC). Lincoln (NB): Nebraska-South
Dakota Regional Medical Program; 1972. 28 p
AB: A Community Health Education Consortium (CHEC) concept is
proposed by the Regional Medical Programs Service (RMPS)
to meet the educational needs of health care personnel residing
in a state like Nebraska, in which geographic barriers hinder
easy travel. Disadvantages of time and place are minimized
by a CHEC, which serves as a local resource agency for the design,
development, implementation and evaluation of education
and training programs for health manpower residing within
the area. Goals and objectives of a CHEC are enumerated. A potential
CHEC program is proposed which involves establishment of
a local programming office for planning, documentation of
needs and phase-in planning. Responsibilities of staff and
advisory committees are suggested, as is a planning calendar
of activities for the period 1972-1975. The relationship
of the CHEC concept to existing programming agencies and programs
is explored. Procedures for evaluating the proposed plan
are structured according to the phase of activity to be evaluated.
The planning, development and implementation efforts of
CHEC an the results of its individual programs will be analyzed
according to their respective objectives. The value of CHEC
for the Nebraska RMP lies in its identification of local health
care education needs and its opportunity to develop a comprehensive
continuing education program at the local level. Portions

AB: Also sponsored by the Wisconsin Regional Medical Program.
Nursing Dial Access, a taped library available by telephone
to professional nurses in Wisconsin, was developed by the
Department of Nursing Health Sciences Unit, University Extension,
at the University of Wisconsin, under a grant from the Wisconsin
Regional Medical Program. The program, available on an around-the-clock
basis, provides short tapes on a variety of nursing and medical
subjects and may be used from any telephone, free of charge
to Wisconsin callers. The library presents core information
in the categories: nursing care emergency situations; new
procedures and equipment; recent developments in nursing;
and legal aspects in nursing. Nursing Dial Access averages
1,000 calls a month. A survey of the users indicated that: the
program has been found to be an appropriate way to provide certain
types of information; nurses have accepted this information
retrieval system; and the program has been successful in meeting
its purpose--to assist nurses outside the metropolitan areas
of the state. (Appendixes include a bibliography of tapes,
guidelines for developing dial access libraries, and lists
of tapes available to states other than Wisconsin. (PT).

AB: Increasing emphasis within the medical profession on the
need for current awareness has prompted the development of
computer-basedbiomedical information systems. The Fact
Bank Project of the MissouriRegional Medical Program is an
effort to provide rapid access to biomedical medical information
from remote terminals. This paper describes and discusses
the conceptual and structural aspects of onecomponent of
the Fact Bank which serves as a document management tool, and
information and/or document retrieval system, and an information
network interacting program. This component, MEDIAN, serves
as acomputer-based link between expanded CONSIDER, an interactive
computer program being developed within the University of
Missouri Medical School's Computer Medicine Program, and
other components of the Fact Bank such as microform resources
and devices, reprographic facilities and audio tapes. The
power of MEDIAN is in its programmed ability tomobilize numerous
document management tasks, to interface with available computer
programs such as expanded CONSIDER, PATRICIA, DYSTAL, PIRS
and others, and to provide linkage between the user environment
and biomedical information resources of MEDLARS, NASA and
other national information centers. The implementation,
hardware/software characteristics and the operational
approach using modular program components are summarized.

AB: Presented are an overview of Physicians' Assistant programs
in the United States and a study of their applicability to the
Washington metropolitan area. The national overview includes
information gathered from fourteen respondents to questionnaires
sent to 30 physician assistant programs currently in operational
or planning stages. Aspects discussed from these data and
from a review of the literature include the existing need,
recruiting, placement, employment, mobility, legal aspects,
admission requirements, evaluation, and task analysis.
In exploring the applicability of the physician's assistant
program to the metropolitan Washington areas the existing
need is discussed in terms of a health care crisis. Statistical
tables provide data on various mortality rates of the District
of Columbia and other cities, physician distribution, and
projection of paramedical personnel needs in Washington
area hospitals. Other topics discussed regarding the program
in the Washington area include the tasks of the physician's
assistant, recruits, education and training, patient acceptance,
and legal aspects. Recommendations and conclusions are drawn.
The appendix presents a summary of the data received from the
responding physicians' assistant program. A 44-item list
of references in included. (SC).

TI: Proposal to Connecticut Regional Medical Program for a coordinated
approach to health resources planning. New Haven: South Central
Connecticut Comprehensive Health Planning, Inc.; 1974.
19 p.
AB: A 1974 proposal submitted to the Connecticut Regional Medical
Program (CRMP) by a consortium of five federally funded and
operating 314(b) agencies in the State is presented. The proposal
involves CRMP funding of services to permit the 314(b) agencies,
CRMP, and the Connecticut Commission on Hospitals and Health
Care (CHHC) to cooperate in preparation for an expected transition
to a more consolidated type of health resource planning agency.
The proposal's importance is considered to involve its plans
for close collaboration with CRMP and CHHC so that comprehensive
health planning's unique consumer orientation and local
government participation will be made available and thus
permit statewide decisions to be made with full consideration
of input from people affected by those decisions. The five
314(b) comprehensive health planning agencies involved
in the proposal are the Capitol - Central Connecticut Health
Planning Council, the Comprehensive Health Planning Council
of Eastern Fairfield County, the Health and Mental Health
Planning Council of the Central Naugatuck Valley, the Midstate
Connecticut River Estuary Comprehensive Health Planning
Council Inc., and the South Central Connecticut Comprehensive
Health Planning Inc. A general outline of the proposal discusses
the need for a comprehensive health care planning program,
prior planning and program activity, the plan of action and
program strategy, plans for promoting organized arrangements,
potential contributions for guiding State health policy
developments, a plan for assessing program progress and benefits,
and a plan for continuing the program. A contractual period
outline is also presented.

New Jersey Regional Medical Program, Inc.; 1974. 26 p
AB: A proposal for a regional library network to provide comprehensive
medical information services for patient care is described
in an application for an operational grant from the New Jersey
Regional Medical Program (RMP). The objectives of the project
are: (1) to link medical libraries of the community hospitals
and medical schools with regional (New York and Philadelphia)
and national information resources; (2) to establish guidelines
for improving hospital library services by assessing such
services in nine hospitals; (3) to increase the capabilities
of hospital library personnel through two training programs;
(4) to encourage physicians in these hospitals to use and evaluate
a bibliography service of the New Jersey College of Medicine
and Dentistry library; (5) to increase utilization of the
existing 'dial access' information system; (6) to establish
such a system for allied health personnel; (7) to provide a
quarterly newsletter for hospital librarians; (8) to conduct
an annual workshop for all medical librarians in the region;
and (9) to expand use of document services available to community
hospital librarians. The proposal presents a budget for the
project, specifies personnel requirements, discusses the
relationship of the project to the goals and activities of
the RMP, and describes the activities designed to accomplish
each of the project's stated objectives. Plans for evaluating
the project also are noted.

Regional Medical Program; 1973. 49 p. (Physician manpower
in Florida series. 1)
AB: At the request of the Community Hospital Education Council
of Florida, this study was performed to assist the Council
in its function of helping to provide a continuing supply of
highly trained physicians, in the appropriate specialities,
in the communities where they are needed. The objective of
the study was to conduct an accurate inventory, by specialty,
of physicians in active practice in Florida and to identify
gaps in the supply and distribution of physicians. The inventory
was compared first with the physician staffing patterns of
several major group health plans, ratios that have frequently
been used for comparison with the number of practitioners
in certain populations. This comparison developed an "excess"
of physicians in primary care and in most specialities for
the state. Such a finding is markedly inconsistent with the
availability of physicians that actually pertains in Florida
today. Under the conclusion that the group health plan ratios
do not apply to the system by which health care and physicians'
services are delivered to Floridians at this time, the author
of this report has developed a set of recommended baseline
physician ratios and has compared the inventory with those.
Related tables are included in the appendices. (Author).

an assessment. 1973 Nov. Rockville (MD): Regional Medical
Programs Service; 1973. 71 p
AB: The experience of the Regional Medical Program (RMP) with
urban health problems is documented and assessed in a report
based on site visits to 12 regions and a review of legislation,
journal articles, and other materials pertaining to the program.
The report opens with reflections on the information and data
gathered, together with conclusions drawn from the data.
Major historical forces that shaped the response of Congress
and the Executive Branch to social problems in the 1960's are
reviewed, and key programs and agencies of the 1960's are described
to convey the environment within which the RMP was established.
An indepth historical survey of the RMP is presented, beginning
with an analysis of the original enabling legislation and
of several statutory extensions. Activities of all of the
regions, especially as they relate to the development of medical
care services in medically underserved areas, are reviewed.
Information gathered by Urban Health Task Force members during
their site visits is presented and assessed. The experience
of the RMP in all regions is said to support the conclusion that
the greatest and most universally expressed need among the
disadvantaged in both urban and rural areas is for comprehensive
primary medical care. It is observed that many RMP's have assisted
communities in developing high-quality ambulatory health
services, usually by building upon and expanding existing
services and facilities. Methodology used in the assessment
is described in the appendix.

AB: Also sponsored by the New Mexico Regional Medical Program,
Albuquerque. Project objectives were to train 10 nurses from
hospitals in tCorners Area in rural critical care nursing,
to have a training director organize and coordinate the project,
and to utilize the replacement nurse concept. The course curriculum
was determined through a needs assessment survey conducted
by a team of health professionals from Arizona universities,
and on-site clinical visits made to participating hospitals
to discuss curriculum content with the nursing director and
prospective trainee. Eleven nurses (9 RNs and 2 LPNs) took
the 2-week course in Albuquerque, New Mexico. Ten were replaced
by project-hired nurses. Since the eleventh nurse was the
nursing director from Zuni, no replacement was hired. Six
nurses were Navajo, one was a Pueblo Indian, and four were Anglo.
Two groups of five nurses each attended the course on alternating
weeks. Subjective and objective evaluations were conducted
through pre- and posttests, and questionnaires given to the
trainees, nursing directors from the participating hospitals,
and the replacement nurses. After the course was completed,
the training director, replacement nurses, nursing directors,
and trainees met to evaluate the project's effectiveness.
Overall, everyone felt the project had been effective. Appendices
include a list of participating rural hospitals, nurse trainees,
and replacement nurses' rotation assignments; results of
the trainees' self-assessment of skills; and the various
evaluation forms. (NQ).

AB: Preceding the body of the report, a brief review of the literature
is provided to acquaint the reader with similarities and differences
between national and local trends regarding the demographic
characteristics of the physician population. The goal of
the statewide residency study was to develop a strategy for
the design and allocation of physician residencies consistent
with statewide needs. A graphic model of the physician manpower
production process was developed which enhanced understanding
of the manpower problems facing Louisiana. Through the model,
available data, and personal interviews with senior medical
students and postgraduate trainees, data were compiled and
analyzed regarding the need for physicians in Louisiana in
1982, where and how the number of physicians can be increased,
the status of primary care treatment, likely sites for practicing
physicians, and related concerns. The general conclusions
point to several significant manpower production problems
in Louisiana in its preparation for future needs for physician
services. The study committee proposed several recommendations
to meet the problem. (Appendixes contain supplementary tables
and interview forms. ) (AG).

for Regional Medical Programs reaffirmed its position on
recruitment and basic education--that Regional Medical
Program funding is not to be used to replace existing sources
of support and that other sources should be explored first.
Therefore the Continuing Education and Training Branch of
the Allied Health Section prepared this listing of resources
for allied health education programs. Federal programs described
include those of: (1) The Department of Health, Education,
and Welfare, covering the National Institutes of Health,
the Health Services and Mental Health Administration, Consumer
Protection and Environmental Control, Social and Rehabilitation
Service, and the Office of Education; (2) the Department of
Labor; (3) the Department of Commerce; and (4) the Office of
Economic Opportunity. The programs of 13 non-federal organizations
are described, including information facilitating contact.
Programs are indexed according to level of training and profession.
Appended are listings of practitioner associations; regional
offices of the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare,
the Department of Labor, and the Office of Economic Opportunity;
State agencies for vocational rehabilitation and State official
responsible for supervision of health occupations education.

Medical Programs of the National Institutes of Health are
described. The first grants for regional medical programs
were activated 1 July 1966, and as of 30 June 1967, forty-nine
had been awarded out of a possible total of fifty-five. The
importance of excellent medical library facilities within
each region, especially in all major teaching hospitals,
with extensions down to the level of the community hospitals,
was emphasized, and the concept of the community hospital
as a learning center utilizing the most modern library concepts
and teaching devices was commended. The Medical Library Association
was asked whether training programs were being developed
which would produce the numbers of personnel needed to staff
the increased number of medical libraries of the future and
whether new training programs were needed for service at the
community hospital level.

as the area's top priority; insufficient manpower represents
an additional major area of concern. A plan for collecting
and tabulating primary health care data is described, as are
programs directed at detection and treatment of hypertension
on an ambulatory basis, education of school children regarding
smoking and drug abuse, and other programs. A policy change
is noted under which fiscal fees no longer are payed to project
sponsors and all projects are administered directly through
the Regional Medical Program staff. This change resulted
in a savings of $60,000 during the year. A financial report
is presented, together with a list of currently funded projects.

AB: The TRMP (Texas Regional Medical Physicists) Program formally
began in 1968 as an organization of Texas medical physicists
with the support of the Regional Medical Program in Texas.
TRMP was formed to help its member physicists extend and improve
their services to the medical profession. This is accomplished
by offering services to the members that they do not have available
as individuals and by serving as a means of communication and
cooperation between the members. Services provided by the
TRMP central office include dosimetry calculations by computer,
mailed thermoluminescent dosemeters to check machine output,
mailed films to check light localizers, loan of equipment
and information services. In addition, a physicist is available
for on-site review of dosimetry procedures at a member's institution.
The TRMP services are available only to physicists and TRMP
employees are not permitted to do private consulting; therefore,
there is no interference with established relationships
between members and the radiotherapy community.

AB: An organizational plan for consumer health education activities
of the New Mexico Regional Medical Programs' Health Education
Group (HEG) is presented. Health education is defined, and
the purpose, organization, and planning base of the HEG are
described. Long-term organizational goals are set forth,
and the consumer role in the health care delivery system is
discussed. Goals related to the development of a total health
resource network in New Mexico are stated, and future orientation
guidelines (the need for ongoing research by the health care
delivery system) are presented. A process for developing
health education materials, including dissemination of
the final product, is outlined. Steps in planning for health
education, drawn from World Health Organization materials,
are outlined as follows: collecting information essential
for planning; establishing objectives defined as short-range
and long-range goals; assessing the barriers to health education
and how these barriers may be overcome; appraising apparent
and potential resources, e.g., organizations, personnel,
materials, and funds; and developing the detailed plan of
operations. A discussion of the concept of illness/wellness
in health education is included. This concept is said to offer
a complete range of possibilities for interpreting an individual's
state or level of health, thereby providing the health educator
with a clue as to how educational methodology might best be
oriented with reference to a persons's health status. The
cycle of life concept is presented as a framework for HEG planning.
Based on the prioritizations given to various categories
as they relate to stages of life, the Group is provided with
topics from which media presentations can be developed. These
topical areas include nutrition, physical development,
environment, psychological development, safety, and illness
/ wellness; life stages are identified as infancy, early childhood,
school age, teen years, early adulthood, middle age, and geriatrics.

TI: Alabama Regional Medical Program family practice residency
feasibility study. Final Report. 1974 Sep 30. Birmingham:
Alabama Regional Medical Program; 1974. 144 p
AB: The need for additional family physicians in Alabama is documented,
and the establishment of family practice residencies in nine
communities is proposed. A statistical evaluation of the
American Medical Association's Physician Master Record
(June 1974) shows a ratio of family practice / general practice
(FP / GP) physicians to population of 1:5, 198 for Alabama,
or more than twice the ratio recommended by the American Academy
of Family Practice. The immediate addition of a minimum of
746 FP / GP physicians is required to achieve the recommended
ratio. Currently, two family practice residency programs
exist in the State, each authorized for 24 residents. Maldistribution
of FP / GP physicians is an additional problem. It is also noted
that older FP / GP physicians far outnumber younger practitioners.
A projection of need for family practice physicians is made
for each planning district in the State. The nine communities
proposed as sited for a Statewide network of family practice
residencies have hospital facilities and medical staff capable
of meeting the educational requirements of the Residency
Review Committee for Family Practice. These communities
also have indicated a level of interest appropriate for program
development. A budget for funding residencies at their sites
is estimated, and potential sources of funds are suggested.
The mechanism by which the residencies will operate as an integrated
system rather than as a loose confederation of autonomous
programs is outlined. Appendices include a list of participants
in a planning conference; an outline of steps in establishing
a family practice residency; the methodology used to determine
physician need; unit cost estimates; a map showing family
practice residency programs in the United States; and other
supporting documents. Nine tables and a three-page bibliography
also are included. Port of this document are not fully legible.

TI: Feasibility study to identify and evaluate continuing education
needs for allied health professionals. A final report to the
Alabama Regional Medical Program. 1970 Aug 31. Birmingham:
Alabama Regional Medical Program; 1970. 49 p
AB: Proceedings of a conference held on June 25, 1970, to discuss
status of and need for continuing education programs for allied
health professionals in Alabama are presented. It was found
that such programs vary from none at all to 'fairly good, but
inadequately financed' at the State level; programs established
by national organizations present problems of high cost and
job time lost for attendance. Needs for establishing and strengthening
programs appear to be in the following order of urgency: physical
therapists, radiologic technologists, medical record librarians,
nurse anesthetists, nurses, pharmacists, and medical technologists.
It is suggested that the various professional organizations
join forces under the direction of an administrator affiliated
with a State university to organize and publicize continuing
education programs throughout the State. Specific topic
discussed at the conference include: the role of educational
television in continuing education; status of and goals for
continuing education for nurse anesthetists, medical record
personnel, and physical therapists; continuing education
from the viewpoint of a physician; and current and projected
manpower requirements for allied health professions versus
supply. Discussions with representatives of four Alabama
professional groups concerning activities and needs for
continuing education and extension services are summarized.

TI: A survey of nursing home staffing patterns and general needs
in the state of Maine. Augusta: Maine's Regional Medical Program
Research and Evaluation Service; 1970. 256 p
AB: A study of nursing homes in Maine was conducted by student researchers
during the summer, 1970, under Maine's Regional Medical Program
(MRMP). The survey, focusing on staffing patterns and general
needs in nursing homes in Maine, was conducted in order to determine
ways in which MRMP might assist the nursing homes and the Maine
Department of Health and Welfare in their efforts to provide
the best possible patient care. The tabulation of the data
which was collected forms the basis of the report. It was found
that for the most part nursing homes are understaffed, particularly
in regard to trained nurses. Recommendations are made such
as: the standardization of state and federal requirements;
a revision of medicare toward greater responsiveness to patient's
needs; and a greater availability of occupation, physical,
speech, and psychological therapists to nursing homes. (Author/WS).

report. Santa Monica: System Development Corporation; 1969.
387 p
AB: The report documents the results of a 1967 survey of health
professionals in the four-State Western Interstate Commission
for Higher Education (WICHE) Mountain States Regional Medical
Program (MS/RMP). Addressed to health professionals in each
of the four States--Idaho, Montana, Nevada, and Wyoming--the
survey focuses primarily on the characteristics and continuing
education needs of the Mountain State health professionals.
The disease categories of heart disease, cancer, and stroke
are emphasized. Part 1 reviews the major findings of the survey
data analysis, providing summary profiles of the following
groups: physician, dentist, hospital administrator, registered
nurse, licensed practical nurse, medical/laboratory technologist,
physical therapist, radiologic/X-ray technologist. Part
2 presents the survey design and analysis plan. Part 3, making
up the major body of the report, examines each of the professional
groups listed above as they relate to: selected personal and
professional characteristics, need for continuing education,
desired methods and procedures of continuing education,
and other factors relevant to continuing education. Statistical
findings are discussed and tabulated. Part 4 reports the patient
referral patterns and practices of physicians and dentists.
Findings and conclusions are discussed along with their implications
for immediate and long-range actions. Survey instruments
are appended. (MW).

SO: [place, publisher unknown]; 1967. 72 p
AB: These proceedings consist of papers presented at the meeting,
grouped into two subject areas: the Veterans' Administration
Library proram and the Regional Medical Program of the National
Institutes of Health. The idea of the successful medical library
as a physician's laboratory is explored, referring to VA hospital
libraries. A description of the Pilot Automated Hospital
Information Ssystem Study (PILOT AHIS) is reviewed, while
the forces influencing VA library services are outlined in
an abstract of a longer paper. The role of the VA Central Office
Library in the VA library network and a description of library
service in the Washington VA Hospital are the other topics
covered. The second group of papers opens with the summary
of a review of current Medical Library Association programs,
followed by an overview of the Regional Medical Program and
its relation to medical library activities and a discussion
of the role of the Medical Library Association in regional
medical planning. The complete test of the paper on VA Library
services is published in the January 1968 Bulletin Library
Program, by Henry J. Gartland.

AB: Planning efforts aim to identify viable options for long-term
care education and career management. The following factors
have been identified as the primary needs in program development
in health administration for long-term care facilities:
defintion and scope of the field; methodology for priority
identification; resources needed for an external degree
program; and relationships and cooperative programming.
These factors along with funding and implementation mechanisms
are discussed regarding the role of Oswego College. The ultimate
objective is to integrate an external degree program with
a customary academic program and to bolster it through an ongoing
continuing education program. (LBH).

TI: Use of a RAD-8 treatment planning system for regional radiotherapy
calculations
SO: Phys Med Biol 1972 Nov:878
AB: A RAD-8 Treatment Planning System located at University Hospitals
in Madison, Wisconsin, is currently being used to calculate
radiotherapy isodose distributions for seven hospitals
in the Wisconsin region. This system was purchased by Project
6 of the Wisconsin Regional Medical Program, known as Wisconsin
Radiological Physics Laboratory (WRPL). Interaction with
the system is accomplished by using Xerox telecopiers. A software
beam generation system has been developed which enhances
the ability of this system to respond effectively to use of
this type. Treatment beams may be defined from data collected
by a water phantom beam scanning device which outputs data
onto paper tape, from beam information already contained
on the RAD-8 system tape and from /sup 60/Co treatment machine
parameters. From a set of basic beam definitions, additional
treatment beams may be generated as needed in a matter of a few
minutes. At present between two and three treatment plans
are calculated per day with response times varying between
a few hours and one day. The overall utilization of this system
was presented as well as the accuracy which can be expected
for teletherapy and interstitial or intracavitary calculations
performed.

AB: Historical developments related to the Lakes Area Regional
Medical Program (RMP) are reviewed. Difficulties in the establishment
and effective operation of RMP's are discussed. Measures
for the control of heart disease and cancer are examined. Treatment
modalities for individuals with chronic respiratory diseases
are explored. Criteria for the delivery of emergency medical
care are outlined, and objectives of the Lakes Area RMP are
noted. Advances made to improve the health care provided to
rural residents are considered. Particular attention is
given to efforts of the Lakes Area RMP with regard to hypertension,
the reduction of mortality rates among young children and
the elderly through the use of a traveling clinic, continuing
education for health professionals, preventive services
in health maintenance, the development and improvement of
primary care services, and the integration of rehabilitation

TI: The Wisconsin Regional Medical Program Optometry Study Committee.
Milwaukee: Wisconsin Regional Medical Program; 1972. 85
p.
AB: An ad hoc committee approved by the Executive Committee of
the Regional Advisory Group spent eight months in 1972 addressing
itself to the question, 'Should a School of Optometry be established
in the state of Wisconsin to deal with the overall need for eye
and vision care in the state.' Their study was designed to identify,
through the providers of eye and vision care services, those
services the public should expect in eye and vision care, and
the optimum delivery of these services. The committee found
that data on distance between practitioners, hours worked,
visits per week, and waiting time for routine appointments
did not indicate a significant need for more optometrists.
Current entry levels and projected exit rates of practitioners
did not constitute evidence that additional numbers of optometrists
would be needed through 1985. The report surveyed the possible
new technologies in eye care that might increase the productivity
of eye care practitioners at some future time by as much as 50%.
The committee, further, recommended the establishment of
a continuing education program through the University of
Wisconsin.

Northlands Regional Medical Program Library Services" which
appeared in the October 1974 issue. 1) Sodergren's survey
queried only a small percentage of Minnesota hospitals; 2)
The program as a whole reached every hospital in Minnesota;
3) The program made possible three years later the establishment
of hospital library consortia, and convinced hospital staffs
and administrators of the necessity of library service for
the support of educational health care programs.
