Existing law establishes the Department of Health Care Access and Information under the control of the Director of the Department of Health Care Access and Information, to administer various health professions development programs. Existing law establishes the California Health Workforce Education and Training Council to help coordinate California's health workforce education and training in order to develop a health workforce that meets the state's health care needs. Under existing law, the council is authorized, among other things, to discuss and make recommendations to the department regarding the use of health care education and training funds for programs administered by the department. This bill would require the council to submit a report to the Legislature, after hosting a public comment period, as specified, on findings and recommendations related to, among other things, promoting higher enrollment for Californians from geographically and culturally diverse communities into medical schools, preparing and assisting students from low-income communities, improving the training of health personnel in low-income communities, and improving the quality and safety of health care delivery. The bill would require the council to post the report on the department's internet website and hold information hearings online about the report's findings and recommendations.
