Establishes a national commission tasked with reviewing health care workforce and projected workforce needs. The overall goal of the Commission is to provide comprehensive, unbiased information to Congress and the Administration about how to align Federal health care workforce resources with national needs. Congress will use this information when providing appropriations to discretionary programs or in restructuring other Federal funding sources. Highlights high priority areas for consideration by the commission, including “an analysis of the nature, scopes of practice, and demands for health care workers in the enhanced information technology and management workplace.” The commission shall be composed of 15 members appointed by the GAO, including at least one representative of the following: health care workforce and health professionals, employers, third-party payers, individuals skilled in health care-related research, consumers, labor unions, state/local workforce investment boards, and educational institutions.
