SHADAC Participates in HRSA State Health Access Program (SHAP) All-Grantee Meeting

SHADAC's Lynn Blewett and Elizabeth Lukanen participated in the final all-grantee meeting of the State Health Access Program (SHAP), held August 23-24, 2011, in Washington, DC.  Lynn led a session on Health Reform and Provider Capacity. The presentation focused on the importance of conducting provider capacity at a state level given the passage of health reform, key analytic steps to this type of analysis and alternative ways to monitor and assess provider capacity issues. The presentation ended with a sample analysis of provider capacity using existing federal data.  As part of the session, SHADAC also produced state specific provider capacity analysis for each of the SHAP state. These briefs can be found here. Elizabeth was supposed to participate in a session highlighting the lessons learned from SHAP from a data and evaluation perspective, but the session was modified to accommodate schedule changes caused by the Virginia Earthquake.
