Implementing formative health planning under PL 93-641.

The National Health Planning and Resources Development Act of 1974 (PL 93-641) melds the Hill-Burton program, Regional Medical Program and Comprehensive Health Planning into a new network for health planning and resources development. Health-systems agencies will possess broader powers than predecessor agencies, particularly in the areas of regulation, control of federal funds, resources development and implementation. PL 93-641 thus offers the possibility of transforming the basic concept of health planning from reactive to "proactive." Successful legislative implementaion will require each health-systems agency to build local legitimacy, ensure constructive consumer/provider dialogue, and respond to state and national managerial requirements. Many questions about planning implementation, the role of subarea councils, agency co-ordination and local governance remain unresolved. The new health-planning network has the potential to assume the function of active system transformation, but will be critically dependent on adequate program budgeting to fulfill this promise. (N Engl J Med 295:698-703, 1976).
