The Health Professions Capitation Grant program was in existence for nine years. At its inception the capitation grant program was intended principally to be an incentive program for various health professions schools, dental schools among them, to increase the output of manpower. In recent years, the program had changed its emphasis for dental schools to curricular modifications designed to improve the geographic and specialty distribution of dental graduates. All the same time the appropriations for the program had steadily declined since 1972. These developments and the legislative actions that led to the termination of the capitation program are reviewed.
卫生专业人员人头费资助项目存在了九年。该人头费资助项目设立之初,主要目的是作为一项激励计划,面向包括牙科学院在内的各类卫生专业院校,以增加人力产出。近年来,该项目对牙科学院的重点已转向课程改革,旨在改善牙科毕业生的地域和专业分布。与此同时,自1972年以来,该项目的拨款一直在稳步下降。本文回顾了这些发展情况以及导致人头费项目终止的立法行动。
