The Use of Market Analysis in Determining Resource Allocations for the Exceptional Family Member Program in USAREUR Landstuhl Army Regional Medical Center, Landsthul, Germany
Abstract
This study was conducted to determine if there was a difference between the recommended number and distribution of Allied Health Professional resource allocations (Occupational Therapists, Physical Therapists, Speech Pathologists, and Audiologists) determined using population based estimates and the recommended number and distribution based on market analysis procedures coupled with professional organization statistics. A significant difference was found between the two methods. The population based system was found to be the optimum system. The population based system required a substantial increase in the numbers of professionals. The increase is impractical based on budget limitations. The author recommended distribution of available assets based on areas of greatest need.
