1 UNC Hospitals The University in American Life: The University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill October 13, 2003

2 The UNC Academic Health Center Today An integral part of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill

3 Does a University need a Teaching Hospital? If yes, then why?

4 The Context of Health Care within the University The health care system is a reflection of the society in which is operates. Health services have changed rapidly in the last 50 years, and the UNC Health Sciences Center reflects that change. Consider the evolution of UNC Hospitals and the UNC Health Sciences Center in that context. The service role of university-based teaching hospitals is essential to the growth of educational and research programs on the part of the health science faculty.

5 The University in American Life: The 1940’s and 1950’s High rate of young North Carolina men not medically eligible for the draft - rejected from military service in WWII. Good Health Movement formed. Increased awareness of the lack of health services in North Carolina - especially in rural areas A rapidly growing nation - health manpower shortages Emerging expansion of health insurance “Hill Burton” funded hospitals developing - with a community service obligation

6 The University’s Response: History and Evolution UNC School of Medicine 2 Year School - 1879 4 Year School – 1952 North Carolina Memorial Hospital – 1952 Named as a memorial to North Carolinians who died in all wars Name changed to UNC Hospitals - 1990 – also kept the NCMH NC Memorial Hospital separated organizationally from the administration of UNC-Chapel Hill - 1971 Board of Directors established UNC Health Care System - 1998

8 The University in American Life: 1960’s & 1970’s Increased development of health insurance and increased availability to the public Medicare and Medicaid programs established as part of the “Great Society” (1965) – Increased access to health care by the “underserved” who were generally the poor and minority populations Increased access to outpatient services and new markets for hospitals Continuing health manpower shortages Significant growth in NIH research funding

9 The University’s Response: Focus on Mission UNC Hospitals is a public academic teaching hospital operated by and for the people of North Carolina. Our Mission is to: – Provide high quality patient care – Educate health care professionals – Advance health and biomedical research – Provide community service

10 Unique Qualities of UNC Health Science Center for North Carolinians UNC at Chapel Hill is the only University in the State of North Carolina to have all 5 health sciences schools and a major teaching hospital on one campus: – Medicine & Allied Health – Public Health – Nursing – Pharmacy – Dentistry Key links to other schools on Campus, and multiple Centers, Institutes and Programs that provide both research and service Recognition of a state-wide role in health services

14 The University in American Life: 1980’s Increasing scrutiny of the cost of health services New reimbursement schemes to control costs Concerns about an “appropriate” number of health professionals Increasing regulatory environment in health planning, service development, and quality – Certificate of Need, Accreditation, Peer Review Agencies

15 The University’s Response: School of Medicine Between 1970 and 1980 the number of medical students grew from 340 to its current size of 640 students and faculty grew accordingly. 5,391 medical degrees awarded over the years Allied Health Sciences Enrollment in 2001 of 354 students (laboratory science, occupational therapy, physical therapy, radiologic science, speech and hearing, etc.) Major growth in research faculty and facilities to support their efforts

17 The University in American Life: 1990’s Rapidly changing health insurance market moving from indemnity services to “managed care” Increased emphasis on cost & questions about what quality health care might be Questions about limits to health services – rationing care Increasing consumerism - with attendant demands and expectations (patient’s rights) Continued growth in challenging biomedical research Recognition of the special roll of Academic Health Centers and their societal contributions – Managed care entities wanted to use our “products”, but didn’t want to pay for them

18 What is UNC Hospitals Today? A facility providing outpatient, inpatient, urgent, and emergent care A comprehensive health center, providing services from wellness and preventive programs to organ transplants A “system” including other owned or affiliated hospitals, home health and hospice services A community partner with other health care agencies and services A laboratory for teaching, and a locus for clinical research A public facility, with societal obligations

19 Special Features The first hospital in the country to provide intensive care services The only comprehensive burn center in North Carolina (between D.C. and Atlanta) A place where cutting edge research links to service – Breakthrough treatments in hemophilia, respiratory diseases, cystic fibrosis, gene therapy, AIDS, Cancer, and others Serves North Carolinians of all walks of life – >70,000 babies born since 1952 – Some with early challenges

24 What is it? – An integrated health care system, owned by the State of North Carolina and based in Chapel Hill. Who is it? – UNC Hospitals and the practice plan of the School of Medicine were combined into a single system, with a single CEO – The UNCHCS was given management flexibility in purchasing, consultation, construction, and human resources activities to assure its management flexibility and competitiveness in a rapidly changing health care business environment. UNC Health Care System - Formed 1998

25 UNC Health Care System Why create it? – More responsive to the “marketplace”, blending the cultures of the academic base with the marketplace – Allowed for needed flexibility from State management systems How is it governed? – A Board of Directors is appointed by President of University of North Carolina System – Board includes state-wide community representatives and representatives from UNC- Chapel Hill, UNC Hospitals, and the School of Medicine What is it? – UNC Hospitals, Rex Healthcare, Home Health and Hospice, etc.

26 The University in American Life: Year 2000 and Beyond Health Care’s Challenging Environment Increasing demand for services versus declining reimbursement and increasing costs Staffing shortages – especially registered nurses Challenges in resource allocation and in priority setting for program development Capital program growth and development Heavy and costly regulation And on the UNC campus …Parking, Parking, Parking
