Leveraging Data to Monitor the Allied Health Workforce: Building a Database for Studies of Workforce Size, Distribution and Availability


Description:

This study compared and discussed how estimates of nine allied health professionals vary across secondary data sets such as the American Community Survey, Current Population Survey, Occupational Employment Statistics, and the National Provider Identifier Registry. This study helped to identify gaps where future data collection and research are needed. The nine allied health occupations are occupational therapists, physical therapists, respiratory therapists, speech-language pathologists, clinical laboratory technologists/technicians, dental hygienists, diagnostic-related technologists/technicians, medical assistants, and social workers.
