As a starting point, staff used the 121 health services research training programs in the United States and Canada that were listed in the 1991-1992 directory compiled by the Foundation for Health Services Research (FHSR)

Some programs are specifically designed for business and government executives or midcareer professionals. Academic and Work Backgrounds of Students As might be expected, before entering the health services research educational programs, students had studied a variety of academic disciplines at both the undergraduate and graduate levels.

Enrollment Building on information from the 1991-1992 FHSR directory and the responses to the canvass of educational programs, the committee attempted to develop a rough estimate of the health services research pipeline, that is, those who are students in health services research educational programs. For the 76 respondents who submitted an update of the FHSR directory information, the committee used their report of the number of students enrolled in each class.

On the one hand, for the master's level and other programs that offer concentrations in areas in addition to health services research, the numbers may include students who have concentrations other than health services research. On the other hand, the numbers refer to enrollments in each class, not to total enrollments.3 3To obtain an estimate of total enrollment, the committee considered multiplying the enrollment figure for each program by the reported years to complete a degree (two years for most master' e-level programs and four to five years for doctoral programs)

Foundations, state government, and private industry also provide funding to trainees. In particular, the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation and Pew Charitable Trusts have supported health services research and related educational programs.

Post-Training Careers According to survey respondents, graduates of health services research training programs will go on to work in three general capacities: as a faculty member of an academic institution; as a researcher for an independent research organization; or as a policy analyst or researcher with a government agency. Others work in clinical or administrative settings, although the responses do not make clear the extent to which they are actually involved in research rather than patient care or management (Table B.6~.
