Sec. 2.
The Board of Higher Education is authorized to distribute funds for the
pursuit of certain operational research projects.
(a) A project to develop analytical tools to assist the Board of Higher
Education in its planning tasks, and in particular research that will

allocating of funds for health education.

manpower objectives of the Board.
(3) The means for assessing the status of health manpower on a

manpower and an analysis of appropriate techniques for estimating future
manpower requirements and the design of an information system in support of
the above two items.
This project is visualized as a 1-year effort, with work in the three

Sec. 3.
The Board of Higher Education is authorized to distribute funds for the
pursuit of various health care research projects.
(a) Such projects would be concerned with the interrelationship between
the provision of health care and education and health care manpower,
particularly in the areas of developing new kinds of health professionals
for innovative types of health care systems. In addition, these projects

and the various community groups involved in such programs to develop data
and define programs based on these data that would permit the entry of
sufficient numbers of new and traditional types of health care personnel
into the health care system.
(b) The Board of Higher Education would be empowered to contract with
appropriate agencies to perform these research projects.
