An informal, open-ended survey was conducted by the National Commission on Allied Health Education for the purpose of learning what the directors of allied health programs in colleges and universities regard as the major problems facing allied health today and the major issues for the near future. The concerns of the respondents were found to cluster in 11 major areas: (1) definition (identity), (2) credentialing, (3) funding, (4) roles of educational settings, (5) clinical affiliations, (6) curriculum, (7) continuing education, (8) students, (9) faculty and administration, (10) delivery systems and consumer needs and (11) research and information needs. Even though consensus on problems was remarkable, there was no such general agreement on solutions. This initial "idea search" proved useful to the Commission in defining topic areas for documentation studies and in underscoring the necessity of looking for solutions.
联合健康职业教育全国委员会开展了一项非正式的开放式调查，旨在了解学院和大学中联合健康职业项目的主任们认为联合健康职业目前面临的主要问题以及近期的主要议题。调查发现，受访者关注的问题集中在11个主要领域：（1）定义（身份），（2）证书颁发，（3）资金，（4）教育机构的作用，（5）临床实习，（6）课程设置，（7）继续教育，（8）学生，（9）教师与管理，（10）服务提供系统与消费者需求，以及（11）研究与信息需求。尽管对于问题的共识非常显著，但在解决方案上却没有达成这样的普遍共识。这项初步的“思路探寻”对委员会确定文献研究的主题领域以及强调寻求解决方案的必要性很有帮助。
