Physician diversity: What the literature
says…
EFFECTS ON ACCESS TO CARE
• Minority physicians are providing a disproportionate share of
care to the underserved1
– Minority status is a stronger predictor of service to the
underserved than National Health Service Corp
participation, socioeconomic background or growing up in
underserved area2
• Lack of cultural sensitivity by health professionals is associated
with reduced care-seeking by parents for their children3
• Diversity among medical school students is associated with
higher levels of cultural sensitivity of all students and greater
willingness to serve diverse populations4
5
Physician diversity: What the literature
says…
EFFECT ON HEALTH OUTCOMES
• Language barriers between physicians and patients
increase costs and potential for medical errors5
• Cultural competency/racial concordance are
associated with higher patient satisfaction and levels of
patient participation in their care6
• Lack of cultural understanding and awareness can lead
to withholding information, noncompliance, delays in
care and incorrect diagnoses7
6
Physician diversity: What the literature
says…
EFFECTS ON PATIENT SATISFACTION
Racial/ethnic identification with physician is associated
with:
– Improved satisfaction among minority patients8
– Higher perceived quality of care9, 10
– Higher levels of patient participation in their care11

pairing middle and high school students with mentors to
increase students’ interest in the health professions varies
depending on age of student12
• Pipeline programs and interventions can have an effect on
physician supply13
• Selective admissions, institutional commitment, debt
forgiveness and other efforts are effective in promoting
rural practice and primary care specialties14

faculty appointments at University of Nevada Las Vegas28
– In Colorado, partnership between Poudre Valley Hospital
and University of Northern Colorado29

Nursing pipeline: A Colorado perspective
PIPELINE CAPACITY ISSUES
• Wait lists—3,579 qualified applicants not admitted due to lack of
slots (2008-09)
• Faculty vacancies (2008)
– 15% of associate degree in nursing (ADN) faculty positions
– 8% of bachelor of science in nursing (BSN) faculty positions
– 15% of licensed practical nurse (LPN) faculty positions
– 11% of master of science in nursing (MSN) faculty positions
– 17% of doctor of nursing practice (DNP) faculty positions
– 76 FTE vacancies for clinical nurse instructors
• Reported barriers to program expansion include faculty shortages,
securing clinical placements, lack of funds, noncompetitive salaries
for faculty
SOURCE: Colorado Health Institute 2008/2009 Nursing Faculty Studies
26
Aging of the nurse workforce: What the
literature says…
• Incentives such as improved benefits, flexible
schedules, ergonomic improvements in the work
environment and institutional support/recognition
can influence older nurses to delay retirement30
• Turnover highly expensive both monetarily and in
terms of loss of expertise31
• No single retention strategy works across all settings,
multiple factors involved32

OF NURSES PLANNING TO LEAVE THE
WORKFORCE:
• 14% of non-rural and 10% of rural RNs ages 55 and older
reported planning to leave their primary nursing position
in next 12 months (2008)
– Highest reported reasons included insufficient wages, too
much stress, insufficient benefits, lack of respect and
retirement
• 15% of non-rural and 25% of rural LPNs ages 55 and older
planned to leave their primary nursing position in next 12
months (2007)
– Highest reported reasons included too much stress,
insufficient wages, retirement, workplace safety issues, and
not feeling respected

Survey (Q25, Q36, Q31)
29
Nurse scope of practice/models of care:
What the literature says…
• Nurse practitioners (NPs) deliver comparable
quality of care to physicians within the scope of
their practice
• Patients report greater satisfaction with NPs and
certified nurse midwives (CNMs) than with
physicians in specific care settings
• NPs and CNMs are more likely to work in an
underserved area and/or with an underserved
population
SOURCE: Colorado Health Institute, Collaborative Scopes of Care Study, 2009
30
Nurse scope of practice/collaborative
models of care: A Colorado perspective
• More than 80% of RNs agreed that their relationship
with physicians was good (2008)
• Most nurses (74% non-rural and 77% rural) agreed
that they participated in decisions related to their
patients’ care
• Approximately 2,322 practicing nurse practitioners in
Colorado*
* The American Academy of Nurse Practitioners estimates that 90% of
registered NPs are practicing in the field; Colorado had 2,580 actively
licensed nurse practitioners as of January 5, 2009.

31
Career ladders in nursing: What the
literature says…
• Robust career ladder opportunities are associated
with increased productivity and satisfaction among
nurses33
• Two general types of career ladders34
– Clinical ladder achieved through on-the-job
performance and clinical evaluation
– Educational ladder based on obtaining higher
degrees

in nursing (BSNs) returned to school for additional
nursing degrees
• RNs whose first degree was an associate degree in
nursing (ADN) began and ended their education
later than BSN graduates

Career ladders in nursing: A Colorado
perspective
• Type of facility where first employed

homes, clinics or physician offices
• Pursuit of additional education
– 15% of non-rural and 18% of rural LPNs reported
currently being enrolled in an RN program
– 36% of non-rural and 43% of rural LPNs reported plans to
pursue an RN education

Diversity among oral health professionals:
What the literature says…
• Racial/ethnic minority dentists more likely to care for
underserved patients35
• Lack of cultural understanding by dentists associated
with barriers to care-seeking for Medicaid-enrolled
children36
• Available literature did not address diversity in the
dental hygiene workforce

professionals: A Colorado perspective
• Minority rural dentists report spending greater proportion of
time in direct patient care with children and older adults
• Payment sources

rural dentists
– More minority rural dentists report accepting Medicaid payment, new
Medicaid patients, Child Health Plan Plus (CHP+) payment and new
CHP+ patients
• Non-White dental hygienists report twice as many volunteer
hours as White dental hygienists
• More non-White dental hygienists report that their primary
worksite provides care to Medicaid patients, accepts new
Medicaid patients and provides care on a sliding-fee schedule

Dentist pipeline: What the literature
says…
• Perceived barriers to dental students’ practicing in
underserved areas/populations include lack of
information about practice opportunities, student
debt and lack of access to patient populations in
dental school37
• Untested effectiveness of dental pipeline
interventions to promote service to underserved
populations38
• Secondary school interventions and select
characteristics of dental school admissions and
curriculum known to promote dental graduates
practice with underserved populations39
