CHAPTER I %

INTRODUCTION

Today, health care finds itself in a highly competitive

environment. This is principally a result of the federal

government's implementation of the prospective payment system for

Medicare hospitalization reimbursement. Other payors, be they

commercial insurers or employers with large self-insured health

benefit programs, have placed external pressures on the health

care industry to reduce costs. These pressures have caused

hospitals to concentrate on efficiencies and productivity efforts

within their traditional concept of operations to combat

declining occupancy rates and shrinking lengths of stay. The

initial successes of for-profit hospitals and the entry into the

market place of a variety of alternative health care delivery

systems have produced even greater incentives for hospitals to

deliver health care services at a more reasonable price--one

which purchasers of health care are willing to pay. -.

Concurrent with the competitive pricing environment is

the equally challenging demand to deliver quality health care

*"" measured by advanced medical technology and competent medical.

. staff. Not only does the public expect quality health care at a

fair price; they also expect health care services to be delivered

in a friendly, compassionate manner with amenities conveying

cmfort and quality.

Expectations for the military health care delivery systems

... .. .-S.'. ,

are equally high. As each service manages its own health care

system, military medicine is under close scrutiny to provide

health care in an equally cost conscious manner and is often.-.

measured for quality using esthetic appearance, technological

capabilities, and the qualifications of medical staff as -"

indicators. Changes in medical technology, military missions and

medical practices have exerted enormous pressures on existing

military medical facilities to support sustained high levels of

care at reasonable costs. The greatest long term issue facing

the military medical services, aside from its wartime readiness

posture, has been a need to deliver quality care.

In response to these pressures, the United States Air

Force (USAF) Medical Service commenced a multimillion dollar

renovation and alteration of its medical center at

Wright-Patterson Air Force Base (AFB) located near Dayton, Ohio

in 1982. This medical Military Construction Program (MCP) was

designed to double the size of the institution and to provide a

facility capable of delivering the leading edge in military

medicine .

Due to past budgetary constraints, manpower planning for

the Wright-Patterson facility has been hindered in developing

staffing forecasts for operating the new composite medical ". -. -.

facility once construction is completed in 1983. Thus, the

purpose of this study is to answer the question of what staffing

requirements are needed to deliver outpatient and inpatient

health care in the new facility. In doing so, this management

study will focus on reviewing current literature dealing with

I:

manpower planning and forecasting, on discussing the external and

internal environment that this USAF medical center faces today,

on discussing alternative solutions to the staffing problems I... !

confronting the medical Penter as well as the methodology used to

determine a staffing projection, and finally, a presentation of

the recommended manpower requirements for the completed health

care institution.

CHAPTER II ,

REVIEW OF RELATED WORKI

Whether examining the manpower requirements for an entire

multi-institutional system or a single hospital, hcalth care

executives have continuously sought ways to provide the optimum

human resources for delivering patient care. Regardless of the

economic environment that health care finds itself in, the

challenge for management remains to achieve the optimum staffing

levels necessary for effective daily operations (Pakchar, 1983).

Today, increases in competition among civilian hospitals

have caused many institutions to assess manpower requirements

seeking ways to reduce costs, yet deliver quality health care,

build morale, and improve productivity. Assessing the

organization to determine the adequacy of staffing authorizations

is a key element in the review process. This assessment must

consider both skill and knowledge levels of required staff and

associated labor costs (Arni, 1983).'-.

The Joint Commission on the Accreditation of Hospitals

(JCAH) places great emphasis on the staffing issue, too. Today,

the JCAH accreditation process examines staff to assure it is,

"commensurate with the anticipated needs of patients and the

scope and complexities of services offered." As a furdamental . .-

standard, appropriate staffing is a key requirement in the

accreditation decision process for the JCAH (1936, p. 1,2). " -

Since health care is experiencing dynamio changes in the

'4 o T:• Li#

"I",%

~~~~~~~~~~ -...................................

competitive marketplace, there is a strong impetus for justifying

enhanced, definitive approaches to medical manpower planning. To

bring about changes in manpower requirements, executive

management must use planning approaches that meet the challenge

for innovation, yet utilize sound business practices. According

to Lyons (1979), management should concentrate on:

o Examining current manpower authorizations to identify

a staffing mix in terms of work experience and qualifications.

o Examining strategic plans which need human resources

to successfully attain goals and objectives.

o Identifying human resource requirements to meet

business strategies.

o Developing a manpower plan to meet those business

intentions.

Pakchar (1933) adds that a practical manpower plan should span

the entire period of projected growth, often five to ten years.

To provide a more definitive structure in manpower

planning, health care institutions are viewing human resource

management via the systems approach to management. Since a

system is a linking of interrelated and interdependent components

having a facilitating effect on the carrying out of a process, .-.

the system in health care is the medical institution and the 4

subsystem of the institution is human resource management.

Torrez (1983) illustrated the systems approach to

staffing using a 500-bed acute care teaching hospital as a model

5

%o Ut. 4. .

-° . ° .- "

(Appendix A.) Under this conceptual approach, the institution

can be also viewed as a sccio-technical system with a flow and

process consisting of services, facilities, technology, manpower,

and resources. Bearing in mind that a process is an identifiable

NO flow of events moving toward some goal, manpower planning becomes

the process and staff, then, becomes an input into the process of

delivering health care. Under closer examination, Torrez (1983)

* maintains that the patient acuity system is another process

utilizing the quality and quantity of staff to mneet patient care

needs. Thus, manpower planning requires an ever constant vigil

and should be managed as a dynamic process.

Regardless of approach, more and more managers arer

looking for ways to optimize the use of their most important

resource -- people. Since the operating costs of hospitals are

dominated by salaries, wages and benefits; managers are looking

to comprehensive human resource management as a system for

solving the impact staffing has on the cost of care. Solutions

a_ to these challenges have used projections based on historical

data, on comparative statistical data, on models and simulations,

or or professional advice (Mackley, 1984). Pakchar (1983) points .

W -to significant problems associated with using unaltered

historical data exclusively to, predict future manpower needs in

the changing environment health care institutions operate in

today. However, historical data can be quite useful when ccupled

w h s. u... i'" ~with staff involvement in determining future staffing levels. "..'

i%

..

* . . .,

But, these activities should be based on professional judgment

and provide management with sound justification for manpower

authorization adjustments (Fawcett, 1935).

The mc t frequently used method for predicting future

manpower requirements is based on this collective opinion of

in-house professionals and practitioners. While it is basically

a means for management to synthesize all information available

into a qualitative, yet nonquantitative form; it should not be

discounted due to its subjectivity. The implicit views and

judgments by individuals with experience and insight into the

realities of daily operations are invaluable in attaining -e

productive and efficient responses to health care demands

(Dr andell, 1915).

One technique offered to incorporate this collective

opinion into the planning process is manpower value planning

(MVP). As a management process to enhance effectiveness and as

an approach to justifying manpower, MVP utilizes nominal group

decision making to determine the optimum investment in human

resources for each of the functions (Fifield, 1974). 'n...

In the face of prospective pricing and other economic,

pressures, hospital departments are turning to tools, such as

MVP, to manage staff allocation and the costs associated with

staff. The key strategy is to minimize salary, wage and benefit

crsts while maximizing the productivity of the enormous number of

health care personnel required to deliver health care services. "

m o - -,-*

* . - -- ... . . . .. . . . . . .

An outgrowth of collective opinion methodologies has been

the implementation of flexible staffing policies for health care

institutions. Since departments are differentiated by the impact

which patient census or visits have on specific department-e

workloads, not all departments are suited for flexible staffing

either. However, flexible staffing has proven to be extremely

h i w c sv ls e geffective in reducing the cost impact of the one area in

hospitals which accounts for over half the salaries, wages and .'

benefits paid--Nursing Services. Nursing Services has turned to

flexible staffing techniques which can be combined to meet

individual hospital staffing needs. In general terms, a core

staff of full-time and part-time nurses identified to meet

anticipated work is augmented by a flexible staff when workload

exceeds expectations. The flexible staff approach allows such

techniques as float pools and squads and incidental staff to

minimize the impact Nursing Services has on the hospital budget

(Herzog, 1935). Bracken (1985) comments that commitment by

executive management and by the hospital staff is essential for

successful incorporation of adaptive, or flexible, staffing.

Historically, consultants have been hired to provide the

technical service for developing a manpower plan using new '

methods, such as flexible staffing. As shown above, that role is

shifting to the hospital's staff. Consultants are now being used

to manage the process, development and design of manpower

,. *%*,

programs using the expertise of practitioners (Bracken, 1985).

4. F . ,

A :*.* - -

Other functional areas within the health care institution

also use flexible staffing. Staffs are increased or decreased

whenever significant changes in workload are projected.

Projection of that workload can then become the basis for tying

* workload and staffing requirements together, as in the case of

* the clinical laboratory. One 360-bed hospital plans to use its

* historical data on the number of tests performed per patient

census to set laboratory staffing levels. They stress that

historical data is valuable only if it is used prospectively

As might be expected, most industries are using automated

-tsystems to expedite the processing of vast amounts of data and to

compute manpower requirements using a variety of staffing

methodologies. With the rapid growth in management information

* systems in all industries, including health care, executives are

* looking to decision support systems (DSS) to assist them in

* containing rising personnel costs. Nutt (198'4), in his study of

*staffing models in hospitals, suggests that decision models must

be developed by individual institutions. His rationale was based

*on the diversity of decision making criteria used by health care

executives and or the variety of, and in the incompatibility of,

- medical information management system designs in individual

* health care institutions. Also, he concluded that "the lack of

* overall norms poses a potentially serious problem for

cost-containment efforts in health care delivery organizations"

9

'd.T- 7F''

(Nutt, 1984, p. 1013).

While much is written about changes to staffing

methodologies for hospitals seeking improved efficiencies in the

highly competitive environment, little is said about how manpower .

standards are developed for new institutions. Shaw (1983) ;

attempted to provide some insight into approaching this challenge

by briefly describing a plan to staff a new psychiatric facility

in Michigan. Through the apparent use of local labor management

standards, Havenwyck Hospital management established manpower

requirements developed internally for each department based on

fixed and variable hours projected to change with patient census.

Starting with higher full-time equivalents (FTEs) and working

towards a goal of designated lower FTEs, a staffing plan was

prepared for the first 245 days of operation linking the FTEs to -'

average daily census. The manpower plan then became the basis

for staff recruitment activities to meet the expected demand when

the new hospital opened.

Parkland Memorial Hospital in Dallas, Texas faced a

similar challenge as a result of an $80 million building program.

They approached the problem of determining staffing requirements

for their new facility by creating a master staffing model. The

model was created through the use of commercially developed

productivity standards applied to data collected from hospital

staff interviews. This resulted in the identification of local

staffing standards driven by workload factors to determine FTEs

(E~wing-Juu.l, 1985).

Since Nursing Services comprise a majority of a

hospital's staff, there have been numerous studies conducted in

England to develop effective staffing methodologies. The British

interest in medical manpower planning seems to be caused by the O

* cost-containment efforts of their government in dealing with the

budgetary constraints imposed by their National Health Service.

* Many of these methodologies use some form of workload method

combined with a patient acuity system. Their aim is to identify

historical data on the kinds of patients treated and the nursing

hours neede-~ to treat specific sevenities of illness or injury..4i

There seems to be a polarization of opinions as to whether the

Aberdeen Nurse Staffing Formula, a patient dependency-based

method, or the Telford System, a consultative approach, is best

for manpower planning (Mackley , 1984) Because problems have

been attributed to these approaches, Fawcett (1985) proposes a

three-tier approach which uses professional judgment, a quality

monitoring instrument to substantiate this judgment and to

* maintain standards and a simple dependency rating to provide

*current information or workload changes. e

Although the American federal government has yet to

invo~lve itself in providing national health insurance, there are

many aspects of medical manpower planning it is involved with.

*Th 3ur eau of Health Manpower, Department of Health and Human

a' Services, contracted with the University of Florida to develop

-7%

design and operational guidelines for manpower in health

maintenance organizations (HMOs) or prepaid group practices

(PGPs). Specifically, this initiative sought to provide a system

for forecasting manpower requirements for ambulatory care

services in adult medicine, pediatrics and obstetrics/gynecology.

Four models were developed to facilitate planning for these

delivery systems, which were, at the time, receiving considerable

attention as the government sought ways to encourage cost

containment on a national level (Develo.ment of Design and

O_* eational Guidelines for Optimum Man.power in HMO/PGP Settings:

Volume I A.plica of Staffin. Models, 1977).

On the other end of the spectrum, the Veterans' '.,

Administration (VA) has been developing staffing methodologies

for their own hospitals for a quarter of century. Illustrating

the complexities and changes in managing human resources for

health care systems, the VA recently announced new guidelines for

what they consider to be appropriate staffing. These guidelines

are to be used by executive management in making decisions about

manpower authorizations and workload changes. Additionally, the

guidelines are intended to develop data bases which will support

budgetary requests to Congress. Issues still to be addressed by ...

the VA include development of guidelines for physicians and

nurses. The VA has contracted with the ,ational Academy of

Sciences to develop physician staffing guidelines. This approach

was taken to prevent the "backlash" of criticism expected with

12

JVg

attempting to quantify standards for physicians. The nursingprofession presents equally difficult challenges for the VA when

developing measured task-oriented standards. To complicate this

process, the VA is being pressured by Congress to link staffing

with diagnosis-related groups or to centrally manage medical

manpower (US Medicine, 193 4)-

The Department of Defense (DOD) uses a variety of

quantitative approaches to determine manpower requirements.

Drandell (1975) used a quantitative technique to determine

manpower requirements for a federal agency outside health care.

In examining the staff authorizations necessary for contract

administration at the Defense Contract Administration Services

Region in Los Angeles, California, exponential smoothing and

regression analysis were used in dealing with fiscal year time

periods and manpower projections. lie noted, that due to the

differences between actual and predictive behavior, quantitative

analysis could not stand alone as a method for determining

manpower requirements. Drandell concluded that "elements of a

subjective nature which could not be determined from an analysis

of past history must be included in any final forecasting

procedure" ( 1913, p. 515).

Presently, the USAF Medical Service incorporates manpower

engineering standards based on historical workload to staff its

i medical facilities. These stindards provide statistical formula

for identifying the manpower authorizations appropriate to a

given functional work area. These manpower standards are then

adjusted based on annual historical workload for that given

functional area. Thus, the system adjusts manpower

authorizations based on increases or decreases in workload (Air

Force Regulation 26-1, 1933). However, there are no adjustments

for changes brought about by new physical capabilities.

Since this manpower management technique is retrospective

in nature, Air Force standards will not necessarily focus on

future operating requirements. To prospectively plan military

health care provider manpower requirements, the Medical Service

will commence using a model called the Provider Requirements ,

Integrated Specialty Model (PRISM). Health care providers are

defined under this modeling program as physicians, physician

assistants, podiatrists, optometrists, nurse practitioners, nurse

midwives, nurse anesthetists, psychologists, social workers,

physical therapists, and occupational therapists. Support people

such as registered nurses or technicians are not currently

incorporated into the model.

The PRISM model has three components. Two of these

components, PRISM I and III, will be the basis for future

manpower projectionrs included in The Pr,_sident's annual budget

submission tc Congress. The final component, PRISM II, is a

decision support system used to plan medical care provider

requirements for each of the USAF medical treatment facilities

throughout the world.

CHAPTER III

THE USAF MEDICAL CENTER, WRIGHT-PATTERSON - PAST AID PRESENT

The United States Air Force Medical Center, N

Wright-Patterson located at Wright-Patterson Air Force Base is a

352-bed health care institution on the outskirts of Dayton, Ohio.

Providing comprehensive inpatient and outpatient care for

thousands of military personnel, it will become the second

largest hospital in the Air Force when a $113.4 million

renovation and expansion project is completed in 1988. The work

will more than double the size of the medical center, from

297,000 square feet to a 657,000 square foot composite medical

facility (Hale, 1985).

External Environment and Mission Assessment

T o provide a valid assessment of the Wright-Patter son €-.A - -"W .-

Medical Center, this study will focus on the mission, goals, and

objectives of the USAF Medical Center, Wright-Patterson. Also -..

addressed will be the background and scope of the MCP; the 1%

catchment area for the Medical Center; the population served and

the range of services provided by this military medical

institution; the array of agencies and institutions with which,

the Medical Center interacts, and any significant changes over

time regarding these factors.

Goal1 s a n d Ob ectives. '

The goals and the mission of the USAF Medical Center,

Wright-Patterson, are primarily established by higher

headquarters. The mission statement prescribes that the

right-Patterson Medical Center provide the medical support

necessary to ensure maximum wartime readiness, combat casualty

care capability, and to the greatest extent possible, a peacetime

health care system for all eligible beneficiaries. This mission .

includes medical and dental care, environmental health services,

occupational medicine, and bioenvironmental engineering services

for all personnel assigned, attached or supported by the Medical

Center. This Medical Center operates as a military consultant .-

center, as a direct referral hospital and as an area medical

center for specific Air Force and DOD regions. This institution

also provides training programs for medical, dental, chief nurse,

and administrative residencies; for clinical psychology,

cardiopulmonary and radiology specialties; and for nurse

internships, a physician assistant orthopedic specialty, and

medical laboratory training. Other services include hyperbaric

medicine, alcohol and drug treatment, and radioisotope services

(Air Force Logistics Command R eulation 26-2, 1985).

As for the goals of the Medical Center, they are

primarily directed by the USAF Surgeon General and the Air Fo-rce

L.ogistics Command Surgeon (AFLC), both comparable positions to

corporate executive management acting as the Medical Center's

goverring body. These established goals are:

o To continue initiatives to prepare to equip Air Force

Medical Service personnel and resources for immediate employment

worldwide to support Air Force operational requirements, during

both peacetime and wartime.

o To implement new programs and enhance others to ensure .

provision of the best medical care possible. ,;. Y.

o To develop more effective and efficient ways of. ... P .1'p. .

conducting a comprehensive medical program in the face of

day-to-day fiscal constraints.

0 To improve patient perceptions as to the

accessibility, availability and quality of medical care provided

by Air Force medical organizations.

o To develop higher standards of personal conduct and

integrity for Air Force Medical Service personnel in the areas of

responsibility, leadership, accountability, and officership.

The executive management of the Wright-Patterson Medical

Center incorporates these goals in the local strategic plan and

recognizes that the MCP is an important resource allocation aimed

at facilitating the attainment of these goals.

The present medical facility was built to provide total

medical and dertal care for active duty and retired military

personnel and their dependents within a specified Air Force

regionr. Today, the Wright-Patterson facility provides care for

approximately 12 ,500 Air Force, Army and Navy personnel and

45,?D0 dependents rf active duty or retired personnel in the

immediate Dayton area. The Medical Center also accepts cases

referred from Air Fcrce bases in the northeastern and '

north-central United States. Finally, this tertiary care medical

treatment facility serves a DOD regional population of almost

400,000 eligible beneficiaries (The Big Picture Management ---

Summary, 1985).

Tc provide enhanced care for this large geographical

region (Appendix B), a construction project for this Medical

Center was started in 1982. It was designed to provide necessary

alterations, renovations anJ additions to the main facility,

built in the early 1950s, and tr, consolidate numerous other

medical departments geographically separated from the main

facility. This $113 million-plus project was designed in the

1970S to reflect the advances in medical, surgical and dental

inpatient and outpatient practices; to affect the changes in

applicable technology; and to meet the growth in eligible

military patient pcpulation.

Prior to construction starting, the main facility

ercompassed 297,345 square feet of area, 350 nursing beds, a

28-chair dental clinic and outpatient and ancillary services.

The old facility was extremely overcrowded and additional mission

requirements forced the conversion of cer tain spaces to other "

than their originally intended use. A total mix of outpatient

and inpatient care could be frurd or every flor. Office or

movement of inpatients to all parts of the facility including the

nonpatient areas of the basement. To facilitat, the use of space

within the Medical Center, several departments and clinics were

relocated to remote locations. These moves further compourded

the effective management of all Medical Center activities

(Sherlock, Smith and Adams, Inc., 1931).

The chief aim of the new construction is to bring all the

base medical facilities under ore roof (Appendix C). Trends

toward outpatient care, advanced treatment and ancillary

services, and developments toward major medical training programs

at the hospital created a need for more space and improved

facilities. The new facility and accompanying modernizations in

medical equipment technology will result in improved or new

medical capabilities. Laser surgery for cataracts, cardiac

catheterization, expanded special care units, and radiotherapy

are a few services which will benefit from the new construction.

A new computed axial tomography (CT) scanner, a linear

accelerator and new special procedure and angiography rooms will

accompany this growth.

The new composite medical facility is significantly " -

larger than the present structure, has a different design and is

intended to accommodate up to almost 10,000 annual admissions and

outpatient visits exceeding 400,000. The difference in design

will affect the staffing requirements for the facility. For

example, whereas the old hospital has orly 5 operating rooms, the

20 : -

new building has 12 operating rooms, including 2 large rooms for

orthopedic surgery and 1 large room specialized for neurosurgery.

Also, included are 3 ambulatory operating rooms. . ?..

The expanded facilities at the Medical Center will

consist of 2 major three-story additions flanking the south wing -.*

of the existing hospital. Circular 136-foot diameter turrets in

each addition will house the wheel-shaped intensive care and

cardiac care units and mechanical operations room. The newhyperbaric pressure chamber, which accommodates 18 persons, is

the only one of its kind for patient treatment in the DOD. The

bottom floor of the southeast addition provides facilities for

mental health, the flight surgeon's office, hyperbaric chamber,

and occupational and physical therapy. A 43-chair dental clinic,

professional training facilities including a 245-seat auditorium,

and a complete renovation of the interior of the existing

structure to ensure compliance with appropriate building codes

and accreditation standards are also included in the

construction. Other improvements will include the implementation

of central processing and distribution, advanced management

information systems and state-of-the-art communication systems.

As for the southwest addition, it includes an emergency

treatment area, records office, outpatient pharmacy and a

crng meration of clinics. A new 185-space parking lot has

already been constructed near the clinic entrance. The thorough

rerovation of the interior and exterior of the Medical Center

21

- --- -. -- *-w..

will present a new image of military medicine for the local

community. The new composite medical facility will represent the

latest in medical facility improvements at Wright-Patterson Air

Force Base since the first hospital building at Wright Field was

completed in October 1917 (Hale, 1985). Indeed, this tertiary

care facility will stand well with the major renovations of

Dayton community hospitals.

The Wright-Patterson Medical Center interacts with a widearray of agencies and institutions in both the delivery of health"

care and in functioning as an organization within the Air Force

community. Appendix D provides a list of these organizations on

Wright-Patterson Air Force Base.

As for the MCP itself, the AFLC Command Surgeon's Office,

the USAF Surgeon General's Office, and the DOD played key roles

in the strategic process related to enhancing the

Wright-Patterson facility.

The approval and appropriations process for all capital .-

expenditures within the DOD and for the Wright-Patterson project

were under close scrutiny from Congress, even in the earlier

.'ears of the 60s and 70s, and can best be characterized as a

period cf austerity. As with most programs competing for limited

dollars, the Wright-Patterson project advocates were forced to

make concessions to gain the ultimate approval and funding

necessary to build a new facility. Perhaps the greatest

concession was that concerning additional manpower requirements

22 . ._

'. . . .. . . . -. . -. -. , -. -*l . -. *, . - N , . * . * *'* - * . . . - .. , •>* . . , * . . ." . . . - .

. r..e

for providing health care, as envisioned in this new composite

medical facility. As a result, no requests for manpower to '

support the expanded and renovated Medical Center were submitted.

Whether those concessions were correct or not is not an

issue as far as this study is concerned. Never-the-less, the

changes in health care technology and treatment have significant

impact on the delivery of care in the new composite medical

treatment facility. It is obvious to the Medical Center's

management and staff that additional personnel are needed at all

levels if the accessibility, availability and quality of care are

to be maintained while minimizing cost increases. These concerns

become the basis for studying the manpower requirements for the

future occupancy of this altered and renovated military medical

, %*institution. 4

On a national level, there has been great interest shown

recently in reducing the cost of 'are in the military health care

systems. During the budget review cycle in the fall of 1984,-%--

congressional concern for cost containment was high. While the . .

military system of operations is under continual review from

within, the Congress felt it was time for an independent revi ew

by a panel of civilians, focusing on the military medical

construction program (MCP). Consequently, the Assistant

Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) established such a panel,

the Blue Ribbon Panel on Sizing DOD Medical Treatment Facilities.

The panel reviewed the criteria for sizing and staffing military

hospitals and recommended numerous actions for improving

V management policies and medical capabilities. ___

In a strong showing of support for the panel, the .

Assistant Secretary of Defense (Health Affairs) was directed to

implement the recommendations of the Blue Ribbon Panel without

delay . One of the recommendations was to finalize an analytical

methodology for sizing and staffing medical facilities under

peacetime and wartime conditions (Cerha, 1985). Initiatives of

this nature are indicative of the external pressures being

exerted to enhance productivity within the military system and to

place controls which foster cost effective medical treatment

facility construction programs.

Other external pressures impact the Wright-Patterson

facility, too. Colonel Bruce D. Wilhelm, USAF, MSC, current

Medical Center Administrator, articulated the changes he's seen

recently in a February 1986 interview. He pointed to increased

JCAH requirements, increased quality assurance and risk r. management requirements, changes in nursing management concepts,

" public concerns with the quality of military medicine, and the

* increasing numbers of patients seeking care as some of the

factors challenging Wright-Patterson, today.

The Internal Organization and Management Climate Assessment

This aspect of the assessment will describe and evaluate

the institution's organizational structure with emphasis n

understanding the operations, management style and climate of the

organization and significant developments and changes in these -'.,

factors over time as influenced by the MCP.

As might be expected for a military organization, the

Wright-Patterson Medical Center is organized under a functional

structure (Appendix E). Such a structure is mandated by

Headquarters USAF and facil itates standardization and control for

all Air Force organizations (Air Force Regulation 168-4, 1985).

This specific structure has proven successful over the years

providing the military medical organizations with an approach to

span of control and unity of command that is both efficient and

effective. The USAF Medical Service is charged with keeping the

force healthy and, in instances of disease or injury, returning

the military member to duty promptly. The importance chain of

command plays in execution dictates a structure responsive to '1

quick and effective vertical communication.

The basic division of the military health care system

into administration and professional services clearly delineates

control. Administration provides management and leadership for

the organization. The professional component is responsible for-. %.,_

providing health care services through hospital, dental, .--

aeromedical and other professional activities. Unity of command

is also clearly defined under this functional design. For the

most part, lines of authority are vertical. With the

commencement of construction at Wright-Patterson, the local

administration has added the Development Directorate to improve -

25

control, conflict management resolution, and communication in

matters dealing with the renovation and alteration of the

existing facility.

As for the management style at the Medical Center, it is

principally influenced by the primary mission of the

military--defense of the country. For this reason, management

4. style, even in the military medical institution, is subtly

attuned to task orientation. Nevertheless, senior health care

executives embrace innovative leadership and managerial

philosophies in practice in the private sector. The application

of such strategies and tactics are employed when the operational

aspect of military health care allows participatory management

and other people-oriented activities.

The major impact of operating a tertiary care facility,

simultaneous with the enormous complexities of the renovation and

* alteration of the facility, has placed great stress on

management, medical staff and patients alike. Construction has

been ongoing at Wright-Patterson for over four years, row.

During this period, numerous inconveniences caused by interim

moves of departments and the physical distractions caused by

construction have challenged everyone. A sensitivity to personal

concerns, and a desire for operating in a positive climate, have

been of major import to senior management. Success in truly

creating a positive working environment has been tempered by

increasing workload5 supported by financial and human resources

26

4el

constrained by budgetary limitations. Due to concerns for such

limitations, executive management is committed to~ strategic

activities aimed at improving resource availability. One such

initiative is this management study.

CHAPTER IV

OPERATIONS RESEARCH

The USAF Medical Center, Wright-Patterson, is

experiencing significant changes in its delivery of health care

due to this major construction project. As stated previously,

executive management seeks to determine what manning requirements

are necessary to operate this new structure effectively and

efficiently. This study examined historical and solicited data

to ascertain if changes to manpower authorizations are needed.

And if changes are needed, what those changes should be.

The methodology incorporated in this study involved the ,

use of nonreactive and reactive measures to arrive at a solution

to determining these future manpower needs.

Data Collection

A variety of historical records in the Medical Resource

Management Office at the Wright-Patterson facility provided ample

data for conducting this study. They are:

o A summary of historical manpower authorizations for

this institution since 1979 (Facts and Figures of Comparati ve

Manag.ement Data, 1 980-1 981; Manaement Summary, 1981; The Big.

Picture Management Summary, 1982-1984).

o Current authorized manpower for FY 86 and projected

accomplished by the Medical Center (Extended Unit Manpower.

Documen t , 1986).

28

.. ...... ............. .......

o Projected manpower requirements using PRISM estimates

for FY 88 (HQ AFLC/S'3A, 1986).

o Pro jected manpower requirements developed by the USAF

Health Facilities Division in conjunction with the MCP design

study (Preliminary Stud : Composite Medical Facility/Dental

Clinic Addition-Alteration, 1934).

o A previous manpower projection based on the Military

Construction Program (MCP) developed by the Medical Resource

Management Office at Wright-Patterson (FY35-89 Medical Program

Objective Memorandum, 1982).

As for the reactive measure, a more current manpower

projection based on the MCP was required. Since Fawcett (1985)

and Fifield (1974) proposed the use of professional judgment,

coupled with historical Jata, in developing manpower forecasts, a

needs assessment was developed to collect department or

directorate specific manpower requirements (Appendix F). The

survey provided each function with its FY 86 manpower

authorizations. Based on this information and based on the

changes to the physical environment resulting from the MCP, the

departments and directorates were asked to forecast a reasonab'le

expectation of their manpower needs for FY 88. Any forecasted

increase or decrease had to be supported by a detailed, realistic

justification.

Evaluation and Presentation of Data.

Most cf the norreactive data was determined to be valid

2929 ""

i- .. *.. .- * _ & ~ *- -r- * g- ..-- ; . aJ

and reliable. The data extracted from official USAF management

summaries and manpower documents, by its very nature, should

stand on its own merit. The basis for development of these

documents is through statistically valid and reliable management

engineering standards.

The projected manpower projections provided by the Health

Facilities Division were not used due to the generic nature of

descriptive data and the vagueness of specific position

descriptions. This was further complicated by the fact that the

basis for the decision criteria for this projection could not be

determined. S

As for the 1983 projection, this reactive measure was an

abbreviated study designed to determine manpower requirements for

the new composite medical facility. Due to changes in health

care practices and technology, due to the cursory nature of the

aforementioned study and due to manpower management's questioning

the validity and reliability of these forecasts; it has been 54

excluded from this study. - .

The needs assessment survey was the other reactive

measure used in the study. It was considered an appropriate

instrument using manpower forecasts generated from historical

workload which were modified by the professional judgment of the

Medical Center staff. However, these changes were only

considered valid if they were accepted by executive management.

All recommended changes for the medical departments were reviewed

by the Chief of Hospital Services to assures a strategic fit in

the multidisciplinary structure of the professional services. . %VI"

Following that review, all changes were then resubmitted to the

ancillary and support services. This action was taken to .

preclude these functions from being subjected to new workloads by

the clinical departments which had not been addressed previously

in the survey. Once those reviews were concluded, the entire

proposal was submitted to the Medical Center Administrator and

Commander for their review and comments. They were presented

with the data from the reactive and non-reactive measures for .

comparative purposes (Appendix G).

Alternative Solutions.

The problem posed in the study was to determine what

manpower changes, if any, were required at the Wright-Patterson Ifacility to operate the new composite institution. The

alternative solutions to the problem are: .. t

o No change to current manpower authorizations (use

projected manpower for FY 88 based on current workload).

o Use PRISM authorizations.

C Use previous manpower projection based on the MCP..

o Use current manpower projection based on the MCP

(June 1986 survey data.)

o Use a combination of the above solutions. - - n

An aly si s.

Once the data from all measures was accumulated, a

comparative analysis was performed. Specifically, the

recommendations of the Medical Center's departments and

directorates were compared with the current and projected

manpower authorizations based on historical workload and the

projections suggested under PRISM applications.

The application of a quantitative technique was used to

compare historical manpower authorizations since 1979 with the

recommendations made by the departments and directorates. The

use of a linear program forecast provided a basis for determining

internal validity. It is a generally accepted fact that there is

a casual relationship between patient-driven workload and

staffing requirements. That is, as workload changes, so does

manpower requirements proportionally. As stated earlier in this

study, one reason for the construction project at

Wright-Patterson was to provide a facility which meets the

demands of an increasing patient population. -*.

Finally, any changes to the overall manpower requirements

were examined fcr the financial impact on the Medical Center's

budget for FY 83. These manpower changes were converted to

salary and benefit costs extracted from current USAF Medical ,

Expense and Performance Report data.

future manpower requirements on historical workload and its

I

application to manpower engineering standards. The manpower

planning system based on these standards is, then, applied to all

medical treatment facilities Air Force wide. Thus, this study

used the FY 86 authorized manpower requirements for the

Wright-Patterson medical facility as a baseline for forecasting

future needs. Appendix G represents in indepth examination of

this baseline authorization with alternative solutions proposed

in the study. Each department and directorate is represented

with a specific listing of all personnel requirements broken into

the three categories of employees (officer, enlisted and civilian

personnel).

Data Summary

Since the military construction project was undertaken,

in part, to meet the growing demands of an increasing patient

population; the FY 86 manpower authorizations presented an

appropriate staffing level to compare with future needs. Table 1

is a summary of the total personnel requirements identified in

Appendix G. As shown by Table 1, FY 88 staffing requirements ,.

based on historical workload are projected to grow by 2 percent

(comparing FY 86 total authorizations of 1411 with FY 83 needs of .'S

1445.) These two manpower planning instruments represent the

current method which the USAF uses in identifying manpower needs.

However, this projection does not take into consideration the

changes in treatment capability brought about by the MCP.

Another manpower system for developing manpower

requirements is PRISM. Although rot fully incorporated into the

manpower allocation process at present, PRISM does provide

manpcwer requirements fcrecasted for USAF health care providers

based on productivity standards and forecasted patient demands.

Again, the manpower requirements for providers projected for FY

Thirty of the thirty-one surveys were returned for a

ninety-seven percent return rate. Twenty-one departments

responded that changes to their manpower requirements were

needed. Nine indicated that no changes to their manpower needs

were necessary. The overall effect of the survey was to increase

manpower requirements to 1652 authorizations, or a 17 percent

increase over the FY 85 baseline.

Description and Discussion

This study has already provided ample discussion on

current Air Force manpower standards and the new manpower

modeling program for health care providers. The needs assessment

survey identified numerous increases in manpower requirements,

which the departments and directorates felt were needed. While

these changes were broad based, some bear discussion:

o Medical Command was recommended to increase with the

addition of a Vice Commander and Executive Officer to the Medical

Center Commander. These two positions are needed to improve

continuity of executive health management as a result of the

complex technologies, increased physical capability and

increasing staff size of this Medical Center.

o Medical Information Systems requires a 54 percent

tremendous growth in advanced health information systems since q

construction liaison, will be disassembled upon completion of the

MCP and the manpower authorizations returned to HQ USAF.

o T he Medi cal Logi stic s Man agement D irec tor ate requested

38 additional enlisted and civilian positions. These increases

j are needed to provide technical logistics support for the Central

Processing and Distribution function incorporated in the new

facility's design. Further increases are needed to meet

logistical and biomedical maintenance management demands caused

* by the numerous systems and technologies delivered in the new

health care facility.

0 Facilities Management requested four more civilian and

* enlisted authorizations to manage a facility which has doubled in

- size as a result of the construction project. Not included in

these increases are additional requirements for facilities

support and housekeeping. Technical facilities support is

-, provided by personnel assigned to the base civil engineering

function but attached to the Medical Center. This relationship

* should be considered similar to contracted support. Facilities

* support staff is projected to increase from 17 positions to 43

upon MCP completion. As for housekeeping, this service is

*provided by commercial contract. Presently, the housekeeping

* contractor employs 70 people and expects that to grow to over

o The Department of Radiology has requested 17

additional authorizations. Both professional and technician

37

%'

levels should be increased to meet the clinical demands of all

medical departments, to support modernized and new equipment

technologies acquired in conjunction with the MCP and to meet

increased patient care demand levels. New capabilities exist

with the addition of a new special procedures suite, a new CT

scanner, a new breast ultrasound unit, and two new

angiographic/interveniol radiologic suites.

0 The Radiation Therapy Department requires six more

authorizations to support a dual-energy linear accelerator,

simulator, hyperthermic facility, and specialized computer

equipment.

o The Clinical Laboratory Department requires five

additional technicians to accommodate facilities now provided on

two floors. Previous tasks which could use shared technician

resources are now geographically separated requiring additional

manpower for support.

o Pharmacy Services requested increases of four

pharmacists and eight technicians. Increases in patient visits

coupled with the design of significantly separated inpatient and

outpatient pharmacies necessitates these manpower increases.

Co The Department of Medicine requested numerous

increases in their manpower authorizations. Internal Medicine

was requested to increase by eleven internists to support

teaching and referral loads as well as supporting the projected

ircreases in intensive care and neo-natal beds. Technician

increases were also requested inspotof the new

gastrointestinal laboratory, the special hemodialysis laboratory,

and the expanded clinical services. Cardiopulmonary Services

were also requested to expand to meet new demands to support

major referrals from the physiology laboratory, the new neo-natal

intensive care unit, the expanded 24 bed intensive care unit

(ICU), expanded surgical capabilities, and expanded noninvasive

and cardiac catheterization laboratories. Increases in the

Neurology Service were also forecasted to accommodate increases

in patient demand. A third dermatologist and supporting

technicians were requested to support additional training

requirements and commitments to the Verterans Administration ,.-

Medical Center and Wright State University in Dayton. Two

additional allergists will be required to support the regional

mixing laboratory and consultative requirements for DOD Region

Six. Five technicians plus one physician will also be needed to

support the mixing laboratory and immunization requirements.

o The Department of Ophthalmology requires increases nf

one optometrist and six technicians. These increases are needed

to support new capabilities in laser surgery, supr athreshold and

full threshold perimetry, slit lamp photography, and improved

fluorescein angiography and fundus photography. Two

ophthalmology examination lanes and a dedicated ophthalmology

minor surgery room have also been added.

meet the overall expanded capabilities throughout the Medical

Center caused by the doubling in square footage and the

enhancements in facility and equipment technology brought about

by construction. Of significance is the increase in medical

technologists and support personnel in the subspecialties areas,

such as cardiology and internal medicine.

As shown above, the manpower requirements from the needs

assessment survey identify manpower projections above the FY 36

and FY 88 authorization levels. Further, the results of the

survey also revealed levels which generally exceeded those of

both PRISM projections. The forecasts from the needs assessment

differ significantly from the other forecasts as it takes into

consideration the new capabilities offered by the completed

composite medical facility.

CHAPTER VI ,

ANALYSIS OF FINDINGS -- INTERPRETATION

In examining the issue of whether changes were needed at

the Wright-Patterson Medical Center, five options were

corsidered. Those alternatives ranged from doing nothing at all

to using a combination of manpower projections to arrive at the

best proposal for the expanded Wright-Patterson facility. The

needs assessment survey revealed numerous manpower requirements

that were not presently being met by other manpower projection -

techniques. The over riding factor causing this disparity was

that these systems did not take into consideration the military 4construction project underway at Wright-Patterson.

The results of the needs assessment survey suggest that

changes are needed in the manpower authorizations for the 4

Wright-Patterson Medical Center in FY 83. Considering the scope

of this construction project and the significant upgrading of the

physical capabilities of the medical structure and its

accompanying technology; the results of the survey were not

surprising. However, it was felt that a comparison of projected .

growth based or historical workload with the results of the

survey would provide a quantitative viewpoint of what the future

had in store for the Medical Center.

Linear Forecast

A linear program was performed using summary historical

data relating to total manpower authorizations. Appendix H is a

44 1

AL 20:.

-, • .w~ y y .-- \ .

linear presentation of the growth of manpower authorizations at

the Wright-Patterson facility since 1979 (Facts and Figures of

Com2arative Management Data, 1980-1981 and The Big Picture

M4anagement Summar., 1982-1984). This graphically shows that

management would expect a growth in manpower authorizations to

occur without the added variable of the MC?. Table 3 provides a

summary of the forecasting technique as it applies to the

Wright-Patterson study. Applying this technique revealed that

the Wright-Patterson facility should realize a three percent

growth in manpower authorizations, or an increase from 1411 to tal

authorizations in FY 86 to 1460 authorizations in FY 83.

Comparing this linear forecast with the other growth projectiors,

a similar pattern is seen: historical workload projections

(1445), PRISM I adjusted projections (1456), and PRISM III

adjusted projections (1483).

As for the projections arrived at by the needs assessment

survey, they were well above the linear forecast (1652

requirements). But as stated previously, the linear forecast and

workload-related or productivity-related projections did not

consider the change in capacities for the Wright-Patterson

facility brought about by the MCP. Therefore, the projections

identified in the needs assessment survey must be considered for

meeting the future needs of the USAF Medical Center,

Wright-Patterson. Although the survey is

no nquantitati ve technique , Dr andell (1975) clearly stated it

suld ntbe discounted. The implicit views and judgments of

the departments and directorates coupled with their explicit

justifications for additional staff are aimed at dealing with the

realities of providing health care in the military environment.

These increases are deemed necessary to reach the optimum

43

pcapability of providing the clinical, ancillary, and support

Iservices intended by the design of the facility, dictated by

current clinical and medical management practices, and

commensurate with the educational philosophy of the institution.

Financial Impact

As with the private sector of the health care industry,

personnel costs in the military health care delivery system

impose major financial demands on the budget. Until recently,

only the civilian portion of persornel costs was considered by

Air Force medical facilities in their appropriated budget.

Congressional concern over the rising costs of health care in all

6sectors of the federal budget has brought about major changes in

the military medical financial management systems. Today, Air

Force medical facilities, like Wright-Patterson, are operating

A under the Medical Expense and Performance Reporting System

( MEPRs), designed to accurately ascertain operating costs and

performance levels. Using MEPR data, annual salary costs can be

ascertained and applied against the manpower forecasts of the

needs assessment survey , as shown in Table 4~ (Medical Expense and -.- ,*

Performance Reot 1986 and Unit Strength Summary Repor t, 1986).

The difference between the FY 86 authorizations and those

projections suggested by the needs assessment survey is 207

manpower requirements and equates to an additional $6,000,000 in

annual salary and benefits for the Wright-Patterson Medical

Center. There will be difficulties in relating the financial

impact of these increases with the USAF Medical Service budget

system. At present, military personnel costs are not included in

this financial management system. As for the projected increases

in civilian payroll costs, the benefit oortion of these costs are

not included in the accrued expenses for civilian payroll as

identified in this same system.

CHAPTER VII

CONCLUSION AND RECOMMENDATIONS

The intent of this study was to determine the future

staffing requirements for the USAF Medical Center,

Wright-Patterson once the $113 million-plus medical military

construction project (MCP) was completed. This project broke

ground in 1982 and is scheduled for completion in 1983 Th e MCP

represents a meaningful enhancement to this tertiary care

facility by renovating, altering, and expanding the physical

structure and associated technology appropriate for the

comprehensive health care delivered in today's military medical

faci ities.

Inr view of DOD, congressional, and local management

concerns for medical facility staffing, this study was

commissioned to ascertain what changes, if any, were needed to

the staff at Wright-Patterson. Present and future manpower

methodologies for the USAF Medical Service do not address the

growth of manpower requirements driven by major construction .j ."projects. Consequently, a needs assessment survey was conducted .*

with the departments and directorates operating at the USAF

Medical Center, Wright-Patterson. This survey combined the

validity of historical manpower standards with the professional

judgment of the local staff in developing future staffing

requirements. This study determined that the Wright-Patterson

Medical Center's manpower requirements will grow by 207 pcsitiors

in 1983, reaching a total requirement of 1652 positions. This

growth will result in the total salary and benefit costs

increasing by approximately $6 million in 1988.d .

The following recommendations are made to implement the

new Wright-Patterson staffing requirements within the Air Force

manpower planning system:

1. Executive management should incorporate the results

of this study as appropriate goals and objectives in the USAF

Medical Center, Wright-Patterson Strategic Plan. As part of the

strategic management process, executive management may wish the

Medical Center Methods Improvement Committee and the Financial

Working Group to review, comment, and recommend a course of

action appropriate to the intent of the study to the Medical.I

Center Executive Committee.

2. The local Air Force Management Engineering Team

should review and comment on the results of this study. Such

action would provide the basis and support for future management

actions aimed at increasing the staff at the Medical Center.

3. Based on the guidance provi ded by the local

management engineering team, the Medical Center management should

initiate authorization requests for manpower allocations and the

necessary budgetary increases in the FY 83 Medical Center to

implement the recommended changes. This action may be best

accomplished through the submission of a program objective

memcrandum (POM) tr the Office of the Command Surgenr,

4~7"° " -S.

~-. ~ J -- --- ~ - .-- -.- - - - ---- 5' % ~ * %* *" %%

W ,

Headquarters Air Force Logistics Command. The POM submission

would introduce the unfunded requirements of the Medical Center's t

manning needs into the five year DOD budgetary and planning

system. Due to the e3rly concessions made in obtaining the MCP

approval and due to the questionable validity of the past . I

manpower planning submission for this MCP, executive management

should seek an elevation of the future manpower needs within the

overall major command requirements for FY 38.

r. In summary, all aspects of the health care industry are

feeling the effects of competition fcr limited dollars needed to

deliver quality care. The Air Force health care delivery system,

just as the private sector, is constantly striving to enhance the

quality of care it provides. A key component in attaining that

goal is providing the optimum human resources necessary to

deliver quality health care. This study has determined that

increases in staffing are needed at the USAF Medical Center, -

Wright-Patterson to support the overall USAF Medical Service goal

of enhancing current programs to ensure the provision of the best

medical care possible.

Manpower Requirements Resulting from the Medical Military

Construction Program

See Distribution

1. I'm pleased to advise you that we are initiating acomprehensive review of our Medical Center manpower program inanticipation of our occupancy of all areas renovated, al1te r ed or

added to by the medical Military Construction Program (MCP)Iproject. Specifically, we want to examine what manning isnecessary to operate your directorate or department in this new t2environment. 'That is, do we need to change the number ofpersonnel authorizations required to operate your functional areaat its optimum capacity?

2. Since our last manpower projection based on this MCP, we havecollectively experienced numerous changes to those factorspinfluencing our methods of delivering care. Some examples ofthese changes are improvements in health care practices, newIrequirements in quality assurance, medical readiness, changes intechnology, and new mission requirements. These issues may havealready been addressed by specific manpower additives or byworkload adjustments.

3.- Now that we are well past the halfway point with thisconstruction project, I have asked Capt Ray Williams to conduct amanpower management study. Capt Williams, a 10-year veteranMedical Service Corps officer completing an AF-sponsored master's%p degree in hospital and health administration, is assigned to us9as an administrative resident through the summer. ~'%

4 . One aspect of Capt Williams' study of our manningLi requirements necessitates your valuable input. Request youdetermine your future manpower needs based only on the changes inwork environment you'll experience as a result of the MCP.Fiscal Year 1983 has been chosen since this point in time shoulIdsignify completion of construction. It should also mark thepoint, for forecasting purposes, that your workload will beeffected by providing care in a new physical environment. We >~

have provided a manpower authorization document in Attachment 1,which will become the 1986 basis for your submission. Based o nthis information and the changes you will experience in thephysical capacity of your work environment resulting from theMCP , you should be able to forecast a reasonable expectation of

% your manpower needs for FY83. Any increase or decrease in yourforecast must be supported with detailed, realistic

Qf63

d- - 76.

justifications supported by changes in your facility's capacityand by new equipment provided under the MCP.

5. We realize the impact this request has upon your alreadyhectic schedule. However, I'm sure you'll agree that the futurebenefits to your staff and to your patients warrant a top-notcheffort. We have provided for your review a sample forecast inAttachment 2. We ask you to respond with your projected manpowerand justification in the format illustrated in Attachment 3. kYour response should reach SGM not later than 15 May 1986.Negative replies are required.

6. Questions or clarifications may be addressed with Capt ...

Williams, ext 79883, or Capt Underwood, ext 79120.

Justification for change in manpower (be specific):

As a result of the FY32 Military Construction Program (MCP), theMedical Logistics Management Directorate will operate the newlyinstituted function, the Central Processing and Distribution (CP-D) Division. The function of CPD is to provide materielprocurement, sterilization, processing, decontamination, storage,distribution, and transportation in support of all inpatientmedical functions at the USAF Medical Center, Wright-PatterSon.Primary missions will be to provide automatic resupply ofroutinely used medical supply items and to provide an asepticallymanaged system that processes medical instruments. Approximately60 medical center accounts will be supported by this new conceptin logistics support.

Tr, accomplish this 24 hours-a-day, 7 days-a-week mission, anelaborate specially designed system of exchange carts, storagemedia, decontamination, and sterilization equipment, andautomated information management systems will be used to carryout the policies and procedures prescribed by AFM 67-1, Vol V,

65

. . . . .

'.,.- .

Chap 10. Presently, medical items are issued from MedicalLogistics to the using activities during normal duty hours,

Monday through Friday. Ordering and storage of routinely usedmedical supply items require the daily involvement of health careproviders and technicians often resulting in stock outages orexcessive on-hand inventories. CPD is designed to reduce supplymismanagement or maldistribution and to free providers andtechnicians enabling greater involvement in direct patient care.CPD requires the assignment of 20 additional medical materielspecialists to perform required duties.

ABSTRACT

All aspects of the health care industry are feeling the

effects of competition for limited dollars needed to deliver

quality care. The Air Force health care delivery system, just as

the private sector, is finding itself challenged to deliver

quality health care with the minimum human resources necessary to

deliver such services.

A study was conducted to determine the future staffing

requirements for the USAF Medical Center, Wright-Pattersor, once

a $113 million-plus medical military constructicr project (MCP)

was completed. The MCP was started in 1982, yet no significant

manpower planning actions had taken place to ascertain the human

resource requirements for operating the Medical Center once

construction was completed. The MCP represented a meaningful

enhancement to this tertiary care facility by renovating,

altering, and expanding the physical structure and associated

technology appropriate for the comprehensive health care

delivered in today's military medical facilities.

In view of DOD, congressional, and local manageme t .r,,

concerns for medical facility staffing, this study was

commissioned to ascertain what charges, if any, were needed to

the staff at Wright-Patterson. Pr esent and future manp¢ower

methodologies for the USAF Medical Service did not address the

growth of manpower requirements driven by major ccr.structiorn

projects. Consequently, a needs assessment survey was conducted

108

with the departments and directorates operating at the USAF

Medical Center, Wright-Patterson. This survey combined the I

validity of historical manpower standards with the professional

judment of the local staff in developing future staffing". ,

requirements. This study determined that the Wright-Patterson

Medical Center's manpower requirements would grow by 207

positions in 1983, reaching a total requirement of 1652

positions. _
