With the advent of DRGs, quality and cost have become the chief considerations of care providers and institutional managers; as a result, persons who can perform competently in crossover fields may be more employable and valuable than their single-credentialed counterparts. In academic health centers with more than one health-related school, opportunities exist to combine degree programs that result in educating multicompetent health care providers (MCHCP). In lieu of thinking about interdisciplinary education in the traditional sense, the training of MCHCPs can be achieved by simply combining one or more aspects of their respective curricula. Three methods--intra-, across-, and extra-field combinations--of melding two historically separate fields are described. An example of an across-field combination--the Baylor College of Medicine Physician Assistant/Perfusion Technology Program--is given. |
