However, not only may there be a shortage but a maldistribution of providers. There is a difference between a Shortage (not enough professionals overall ) and Maldistribution (uneven distribution of professionals by either geographic or specialization). This is an issue across the U.S. Healthcare System.Rural areas are affected most because of long distances to health systems and the lack of professionals that willing to work in these regions. Discussion Instructions Scenario: After moving to a rural community to become CEO of a Federally Qualified Health Clinic (FQHC), you find there are not enough providers to meet the needs of your clients.
