Issue Brief: Indiana's Health Professions Workforce Shortages and Mal-distributionPhysicianSupply Demand and DistributionBriefs2007Downloadhttps://hdl.handle.net/1805/6003McKeag Douglas B.; Zollinger Terrell W.; Allen Deborah I.; Przybyiski Michael J.; Holloway Angela M.; Kochhar Komal; Muegge Carolyn M.; Emery Elizabeth J.Workforce shortages have been documented across a broad spectrum of health profession disciplines in Indiana. Currently federal state and local programs exist to recruit and retain health professionals in our state; however these programs have had minimal impact on the underlying factors that contribute to the problem. Additional steps must be taken to expand the supply of health professionals to adequately meet the growing need for health care services among Indiana residents. While many health professional shortages exist this brief will focus on the primary care physicians and nurses needed to provide medical homes for residents of our state.

Jr; Buente Bryce B.All dentists who renewed their Indiana licenses on - line in 2010 or 2012 were asked to complete a voluntary survey instrument that ha d a 95.4% response rate 1 in 2010 and 80.7% response rate 2 in 2012. The purpose of this study was to describe the dental workforce in Indiana with a focus on comparing graduates from the Indiana University School of Dentistry (IUSD) to all other practicing ( n on - IUSD ) dentists in Indiana. Of primary interest is how well the graduates of IUSD are meeting the oral health needs of the population of the state particularly in the rural and underserved areas. Using data from the Office of Alumni Relations at IUPUI license numbers of IUSD alumni were matched to the license numbers of individuals in the 2010 or 2012 Indiana Dentist Licensure Survey datasets. Individuals whose license numbers matched with the alumni list were identified as “IUSD” graduates and those that did not match were identified as “non - IUSD” graduates. This report compares responses between 2203 IUSD and 835 n on - IUSD graduates who renewed their licenses and completed the Indiana Dentist Licensure Surveys in 2010 or 2012 respectively. Lastly most of the differences between groups were found to be statistically significant due to the large sample size of IUSD graduates compared to non - IUSD graduates. Thus for the purposes of this report if the differences between groups were noted to be at least 10 percent they were considered remarkable and reported as such.

Data presented in this report provide a snapshot of key demographic and practice characteristics for the oral health workforce. The 2016 Indiana Oral Health Licensure Survey Data Report presents key information derived from data collected from the dentist and dental hygienist re-licensure survey administered by the Indiana Professional Licensing Agency (IPLA) during the license renewal period. In 2016 3862 dentists and 4946 dental hygienists renewed their professional licenses. Of these 2259 dentists and 3231 dental hygienists reported having an Indiana practice address and were included in this report. Marion County encompasses the largest reported oral health workforce full-time equivalents (FTEs): 229.3 FTE for dentists and 309.8 FTE for dental hygienists. Based on the samples in this report the greatest need for oral health professionals is in rural less populous counties; 12 counties (Brown Crawford Martin Newton Ohio Pike Randolph Pulaski Switzerland Starke Union Warren) reported 1.0 FTE or less for dentists in general practice or dental hygienists. A great need exists for pediatric dentistry since 81 counties had 0.0 FTE for pediatric dentists. Access to oral health care services is compounded by the low proportion of dentists who accept Medicaid (49.0%) and the fact that over three-quarters (79.6%) do not offer a sliding-fee scale. This report details important demographic and practice characteristics for the oral health workforce and examines these data specifically for dentists and dental hygienists. The 2016 Indiana Oral Health Licensure Survey Data Report presents a snapshot of data on the dentist and dental hygienist professions to provide stakeholders with information needed to improve the quality and accessibility of oral health care for Indiana residents through policymaking workforce development and resource allocation.
