Report of the Graduate Medical Education National Advisory Committee to the secretary.

The Graduate Medical Education National Advisory Committee (GMENAC) was charged with the task of advising the Secretary of the Department of Health and Human Services on overall strategies on the present and future supply and requirements of physicians by specialty and geographic location. In September of 1980, GMENAC submitted its final report to the Secretary. Included in this report are policy directives that were issued in the form of recommendations; several of these recommendations are directed specifically at the independent non-physician health care professions. The potential impact of these recommendations upon the profession of optometry is monumental; and, the authority of GMENAC to issue directives regarding the supply of optometrists and the future requirements of optometric manpower must be challenged.

An experiment in health careers recruitment: a summer program at Indiana University.

During the summer of 1973, the Indiana University Division of Optometry, via a Special Project Grant from the National Institutes of Health, conducted its first Summer Institute in the Health Related Professions for High School and College Students. Twenty-seven high school students and twenty-nine college students were brought to Indiana University for intensive sessions in career awareness, curriculum and financial counseling, and academic coursework. Assisted by the staffs of Indiana Health Careers, Inc. and the Indiana University Coordinators for School Science, the Institute awakened new interests and goals, relative to the health career prospectus, within the trainees. As a direct consequence of the summer program, four participants in the college institute were matriculated into schools of medicine, pharmacy, and optometry during the semester following the culmination of the Institute; ten more are participating in the followup program for continued guidance and counseling, seeking 1974 entrance into health professions schools and colleges. This experiment in health professions recruitment for minority, disadvantaged, and low-income students proved to be a viable method of increasing the manpower pool of health professionals.
