Abstract
The South Carolina Department of Health and Human Services engaged Health Management Associates, Inc. to conduct a comprehensive workforce assessment of the supply, demand, and distribution of physicians throughout South Carolina. The objective of this project is to identify the gaps between the current and projected supply of physicians and the evolving needs of the population. The assessment focuses on quantifying the availability of physicians, evaluating healthcare service utilization through demographic trends, and projecting future workforce requirements across specialties. The results provide actionable insights to guide the SCDHHS’s support of graduate medical education across South Carolina to meet residents’ needs over the coming decade and serve as a resource for policymakers, healthcare leaders, and educators as they collaborate to address workforce gaps and build a sustainable, responsive healthcare system.
