A repeated cross-sectional design is used to analyze data collected from a national survey in 2018 and 2021. Changes in six different outcome measures of work-life balance were examined using multivariable logistic regression, controlling for health administration faculty characteristics. Compared to 2018 respondents, faculty respondents in 2021 were more likely to report that family and personal matters were interfering with their ability to do their job (OR = 1.93, p=0.001). Females more frequently reported that their career had suffered because of personal issues/obligations (OR = 1.82, p=0.003) but were less likely to report having enough time to get their teaching (OR = 0.68, p=0.026). Respondents with children 18 years or younger reported higher rates of regularly having to miss a meeting or event at home (OR = 1.88, p<0.001) and an event at work (OR = 3.74, p<0.001). These faculty also more frequently reported that family or personal matters were interfering with their ability to do their job (OR = 3.04, p<0.001) and that their career suffered because of personal issues/obligations (OR = 2.09, p=0.001).

A teaching electronic medical record (tEMR) is a fully operational electronic medical record that uses de-identified electronic patient data and provides a framework for students to familiarize themselves with the data, features, and functionality of an EHR. Although purported to be of value in health administration programs, specific benefits of using a tEMR in health administration education is unknown. We sought to examine Master of Health Administration (MHA) students' perceptions of the use, challenges, and benefits of a tEMR. We analyzed qualitative data collected from a focus group session with students who were exposed to the tEMR during a semester MHA course. We also administered pre- and post-survey questions on students' self-efficacy and perceptions of the ease of use, usefulness, and intention to use health care data analysis in their future jobs. We found several MHA students valued their exposure to the tEMR, as this provided them a realistic environment to explore de-identified patient data. Scores for students' perceived <i>ease of using</i> healthcare data analysis in their future job significantly increased following use of the tEMR (pre-test score M=3.31, SD=0.21; post-test score M=3.71, SD=0.18; p=0.01).

As in previous iterations of similar survey data, there remain differences in salary by both gender and race. Higher salaries were associated with having a 12-month contract, being tenured or tenure-track, having an administrative position, and being in a department whose focus is not primarily teaching.

A pilot study was conducted to interview HRO executives in Southern California. Respondents represented different organizational contexts to ensure a diverse overview of strategic issues, competencies, and development needs. We analyzed qualitative and quantitative data using an innovative framework for analyzing HRO leadership development. The National Center for Healthcare Leadership 'Health Leadership Competency Model' was used as the foundation of our competency research. Top strategic issues included economic downturn and external funding, the influence of governmental policies and regulations, operating in global markets, and forming strategic alliances. High priority NCHL leadership competencies required to successfully lead an HRO include talent development, collaboration, strategic orientation, and team leadership. Senior executives need financial skills and scientific achievement; emerging leaders need technical/scientific competence, information seeking, and a strong work ethic. About half of the respondents reported having no leadership development program (LDP). Almost all reported their organization encourages mentoring, but less than one-third reported an active formalized mentoring program. We conclude that uncertainties and challenges related to healthcare reform and the continued budget deficits will require HRO restructuring to contain costs, remove barriers to innovation, and show value-add in accelerating discovery to improve clinical care, patient outcomes, and community health. Successful leaders will need to become more strategic, entrepreneurial, and resourceful in developing research alliances, executing research operations, and continually improving performance at all levels of the HRO.</p>","PeriodicalId":75078,"journal":{"name":"The Journal of health administration education","volume":"29 2","pages":"135-154"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2012-01-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5940450/pdf/nihms722155.pdf","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"36089157","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
