ABSTRACTCollected through national surveys and from secondary

sources, this publication provides information on the geographicdistribution cf the following selected health personnel: (1)pharmacists, (2) registered nurses, (3) dentists, (4) physicians, (5)podiatrists, and (6) veterinarians. Data are presented in tablesreflecting selected health personnel, population, and effectivebuying income by state, standard metropolitan statistical area,county, and ccunty group within the state for 1966-1968. Generally,health personnel in the selected categories have shown an increase inthe years since 1962. Decreases in the ratios of pharmacists, nurses,and physicians to population were evident in the western region. Theratios of dentists and pharmacists also decreased in the northeasternregion, although this region continued to maintain the highest ratioof personnel to population. (SB)

INTRODUCTION

This volume is one of a three-part seriescontaining State and county information on healthmanpower and health facilities. Entitled HealthManpower: A County and Metropolitan Area DataBook, it provides information on the geographicdistribution of the following selected health per-sonnel:

Year Health personnel Number ofpersons

1966 Pharmacists 131,9611966 Registered Nurses 909,1311967 Dentists 106,6801967 Physicians, M.D. 301,1921967 Physicians, D.O. 13,4151968 Podiatrists 7,9701968 Veterinarians 25,648

These health personnel account for about halfof the three million persons in specific occupa-tions recognized as being in the health field. Thetables present data by State, standard metropol-itan statistical area (SMSA), county group withinState, and county.

The other two volumes in the series areentitled Hospitals: A County and MetropolitanArea Data Book (PHS Pub. No. 2043, Sec. 1) andNursing Homes: A County and Metropolitan AreaData Book (PHS Pub. No. 2043, Sec. 2.).

The Division of Health Resources Statisticsin the National Center for Health Statistics (NCH 5)

collec:e data or. health manpower through na-tional surveys and from secondary sources. Bothdata sources were used to obtain the geographicdistributions presented in this report.

These distributions were developed from themailing addresses obtained for the 'seven occu-pations covered. As such, the distributions ofphysicians (Doctors of Medicine and Doctors ofOsteopathy), dentists, podiatrists, and veteri-narians primarily reflect the location of theiroffices, wh`le the distributions of nurses andpharmacists reflect their places of residence.Selection of the categories of health personnelwas largely determined by the availability ofmailing address information.

Comparable data for 1962 werepresentedforeight health occupations in Health ManpowerSource Book 191 published by the Division of Pub-lic Health Methods and the National Center forHealth Statistics. The eii,nt occupations includedin Source Book 19 were physicians (M.D. andD.O.), dentists, registered nurses, pharmacists,sanitarians, sanitary engineers, and veterinar-ians.

The regional statistics shown in table A re-flect changes that have occurred since 1962 inthe distribution of physicians (M.D. and D.O.),dentists, nurses, pharmacists, and veterinar-ians. Generally, health personnel in these cate-gories showed an increase between 1962 and thecurrent data. Decreases in the ratios of pharma-cists, nurses, and physicians to population wereevident in the West. The ratios of dentists andpharmacists to population also decreased in the

SOURCES OF DATA

The counts c 'onnel, population, and ef-fective buying in shown in the tables arebased on the speci,.... sources indicated below,All counts are for the United States and includeFederal and non-Federal health personnel, ex-cept counts of dentists which are for non-Federalpersonnel only.

In table 1 for the United States and each State,counts of pharmacists, registered nurses, andphysicians (D.O.) have been adjusted for nonre-sponse by proportional allocation. In proportionalallocation it is assumed that naarespondents havethe same characteristics and geographical dis-tribution as respondents. Thus, the proportionof personnel reporting activity status who wereactive was applied to the number who did not re-port activity status to allocate this latter groupto active and inactive status, i.e., since 89 per-cent of the pharmacists reporting activity statuswere active, this proportion was applied to 2,123who did not report activity status yielding 1,889who were then assumed to be active. The same

2

procedure was followed to allocate personnel toStates in table 3.

No county counts were adjusted.Pharmacists. -The 1966 pharmacy man-

power survey3 was conducted by the NationalAssociation of Boards of Pharmacy (NAB?) incooperation with the National Center for HealthStatistics (NCHS). The State boards of pharmacyincluded a questionnaire with the licensing re-newal form sent to each pharmacist at the appro-priate renewal time between October 1965 andSeptember 1967. Most of the questionnaires weresent during calendar year 1966. The 154,1ICcompleted questionnaires were then processedand duplicate records of pharmacists licensedin more than one State were removed.

The total number of pharmacists thus ob-tained was 122,958, including 13,245 inactivepharmacists and 2,123 who did not report ac-tivity status. The county counts were developedfrom these data and include about 2,000 phar-macists who were Federal employees.

The counts of active pharmacists in the UnitedStates and each State were adjusted for thosewho did not report activity status (of the 2,123in this group 1,889 were assumed to be active).In addition counts for both total and active phar-macists were then adjusted to include an esti-

mated 9,000 pharmacists who did not respond tothe survey, thus the total count was adjusted to131,961, as reported by the NABP for January1, 1967.2

In this report, pharmacists who did not re-port activity status were proportionally allocatedto active and inactive status based on the 1966NCHS pharmacy manpower survey.3Therefore,the adjusted U.S. count of active pharmacistswas 117,495 which was 3,987 less thanthe 121,482reported by the NABP for January 1, 1967.2 Inthe NABP report which was based on reportsfrom the State licensing boards, all pharmacistswhose activity status was unknown were assumedto be active.

There are also differences in the unadjustedcounts of pharmacists in this report and thosepublished in the pharmacy manpower survey re-port, Pharmacy Manpower 3, since different meth-ods of removing duplicate records were em-ployed. For the present report, duplicate recordsof pharmacists licensed in more than one Statewere deleted by matching social security num-ber, name, and year of birth, leaving 122,958pharmacists. For the survey reports, all phar-macists who resided outside of the State in whichthey were licensed were deleted, leaving 115,583pharmacists. The latter is the procedure theNABP also uses for their annual statistics.

Registered Nurses.The 1966 Inventory ofRegistered Nurses was conducted by the Amer-ican Nurses' Association (ANA), under contractwith the Public Health Service. The State boardsof nursing included a uniform set of questionson the license application sent to each nurse atthe appropriate renewal time, between September1965 and November 1966. The questions coveredemployment status, age, marital status, educa-tional preparation, employment setting, and clin-ical practice area. The completed license appli-cations were then processed according to ANAspecifications and duplicate licenses weee re-moved. The results of this Inventory were pub-lished by the ANA in R.N. 's 1966, An Inventoryof Registered Nurses.4

The distributions of nurses presented in thisreport were developed from the Inventory data- ,received as punched cards from the ANA andinclude 906,015 Federal and non-Federal nurses.All total counts were proportionally adjusted

to include 3,116 nurses whose State of residencewas unknown. All active counts were then ob-tained by subtracting the estimated numbers ofinactive nurses as reported by the ANA from thetotals. The total ANA count of 909,131 regis-tered nurses includes 593,694 active nurses,285,791 inactive nurses and 29,646 who did notreport activity status. Of the latter group, theANA assumed 19,494 were active.

In this report nurses are allocated to Statesby their mailing addresses, a procedure thatprimarily reflects State of residence. The Statecounts thus obtained differ from those publishedby the ANA, since the ANA distributed activenurses by State of employment and inactivenurses by State of residence. For purposes ofcomputing State nurse supply, the active totalsby State of employment should be used. See table Bfor both State distributions.

Where large cities are located close to-aState border, nurses frequently live in one Stateand work in another. For example, the Districtof Columbia has nearly 1,700 more active nurseswhen the allocation procedure is by State of em-ployment instead of State of mailing address.

State counts also change when nurses usepermanent mailing addresses that reflect neitherresidence nor employment. For example, Alaskahas fewer active nurses when the allocationprocedure is by mailing address rather thanemployment.

Dentists.--The American Dental Directory5was used to summarize the location of non-Fed-eral dentists .6 The counts of dentists are as ofDecember 31, 1967 and include graduates foracademic year 1966-67. The total count of106,680 dentists includes about 13,500 inactivedentists and excludes about 8,000 Federal den-tists.

Physicians (M.D.).Two summary computertapes showing the location of physicians as ofDecember 31, 1967 were obtained from the Amer.ican Medical Association (AMA). These summarytapes. were used to produce the M.D. countycounts for both Federal and non-Federal phy-sicians. Since the AMA does not show data for

4 'all of the independent cities in Virginia, the 1967American Medical Director; was used to pro-duce the city counts. The counts inc?ude mem-bers and nonmembers of the Association.

Active nurses are distributed by State of employment; inactive nurses by State of residence.-All nurses (active and inactive) are distributed by mailing address which primarily reflects

State of residence. The total counts have been proportionally adjusted for approximately 3,000nurses whose State of residence was mknown.

Adjusted for activity status not reported.'Counts have been adjusted by subtracting the number of inactive counts estimated by the ANA

from the adjusted totals.

The total and active counts exclude 5,729active and 49 inactive physicians in the U.S. pos-sessions and 1,660 physicians whose addresseswere unknown to the AMA. The total count of301,,192 includes 24,015 Federal, 264,328 activenon-Federal, and 12,849 inactive physicists.

County data from this report can be madecomparable to the AMA's Distribution of Phy-sicians, Hospitals, and Hospital Beds in the U.S.,1967"by adding the independent city counts totheir respective counties, (see page 6 ). ForSMSA data it will also be nec.:rssary to addTolland County to Hartford, Ccnnecticut SMSA,and Newport County to Providence, Rhode IslandSMSA.

Physicians (D,0),The American Osteo-pathic A ssociation9 provided punched cards onindividual physicians as of December 31, 1967,with address changes through May 1968. Thesecards wore used to produce the D.O. countycomic ;r both Federal and non-1 ederal phy-sicians. Ilse counts include members and non-members of the Association. The total count of13,415 includes 172 Federal and 11,20 . activenon-Federal physicians, 1,300 inactiv.. physi-cians, and 734 who did not report activity status.Of the latter group, 659 were allocated to activestatus, bringing the total count of active phy-sicians to 12,040.

Podiatrists.The American Podiatry Asso-ciation supplied unpublished State licensing liststo be used for the 1970 NCHS Podiatry Manpowes.Survey. These lists covered new licenses andrenewals for the appropriate renewal period be-tween the fall of 1967 and the spring of 1969.Graduates for academic years 1967-68 and 1968-69 were added to the lists. About 1,000 duplicaterecords were removed from the lists beforethe survey was undertaken, After the surveywas completed, county counts for 1968 were ob-tained by removing additional duplicates, grad-uates for academic year 1968-69, those out-of-scope, and those deceased prior to Dezember31, 1968. These county counts include' Federaland non-Federal podiatrists.

The total count of 7,970 includes approxi-mately 7,000 active podiatrists with fewer than100 in the military or other Federal service.This total count for 1968 compares favorablywith the count of 8.050 obtained from the podi-

atry survey which was conducted from Januarythrough March 1970. The estimate of 8,200 po-diatrists f4-. 1°68 publi-ined in Health Resource^Statistic* was made prio. to this survey andwas based on the orginial State licensingwith identifiable duplicates removed. Aftersurvey was completed, additional I uplicatt a,deaths, and those out-of-scope were deleted,reducing the number to 7,970

Veterinarians. The Pmedcan VeterinaryMedical Association provided punched cards onindividual veterinarians as of July 1, 1968.11 Thecounts of veterinarians developed from thesecards excl, 4e graduates for academic year `967-68. The total count of 25,648 includes approxi-mately 3,000 Federal, 22,000 active non-Federal,and 600 inactive veterinarians.

Population,Estimates of the total . esi-dent population of counties as of July 1, 1966were obtained f om the Bureau of the Census.i'lThes0 estimates are for the c'ellian residentpopulation plus members of tie f.rnsed Forcesstationed in the area. Since the Bureau of theCensus did not provide separate population es-timates for all co:Antirs and independent cities,these estimates were made by proportional al-location based an estimates ',rem Sales Mat:-agement Cot, orationt3and the Bureau of Popu-lation and Econo .dc Research, University ofVirginiaPlndividul estimates were thur ob-tained for .he counties of Chattahooche.. inGeorgia; Grayson, Virginia; Menominee, Wis-consin; and Yellowstone Na'4onal Park, Wyo-ming; and . . these independentcities in Virginia;CharlottesNyhtle, Clifton Forge, Covington, Fair-fax, Falls Church, Franklin, Harrisr-burg, Lexington, Soutn Roston, and Williamsburg.

Effective buying income.Market StatisticL,Inc., research consultants to sales ManagementCorporation, provided punched cards containingestimates of effective buying income for coun-ties for 1966 and 1967. Additional effective buy-ing incomes for some independent cities wereobtained from the June 10, 1967, and the June10, 1968 issues of Sales Management, the Mar-keting Magni:me." Effective buying income isdefined as the income individuals receive in thform of wages, salaries, pro's, and propertyincome minus all tax payments to Federal,State, and local governments. All effective buy-

5

ing income data are from the Sales ManagementSurvey of Buying Power, copyrights 1967 and1968, and further reproduction is prohibited.

INDEPENDENT CITIES

The 3,114 counties listed in this report in-clude 37 independent cities as of July 1, 1967,35 in Virginia, 1 in Maryland, and 1 in Mis-souri. Since that date 3 more cities in Virginiahave become independent. These are BedfordCity, which is included in Bedford County, Em-poria in Greensville County, and Salem in Ro-anoke County.

The 35 independent cities in Virginia in-cluded in this report and the counties from whichthey were separated for population or buyingincome data are listed in table C.

The remaining independentc ities, Baltimor e,Maryland, and Saint Louis, Missouri, are con-ventionally treated separately since they werenever part of any county.

COUNTY ALLOCATION PROCEDURES

A combination of two methods was used toallocate individuals to counties and independentcities. All county counts, except physician (M.D.),were developed according to one or both of themethods described below. The M.D. county countswere developed by the AMA. Counts of M.D.'sin five independent cities in Virginia were de-veloped by the NCHS using the AMA Directory'and both of the methods described.

The primary method of allocating individ-uals to counties was to match their State cudesand their mailing address ZIP codes with thoseon the Post Office (PO) tape, and to use thecorresponding county name indicated on the POtape. For this method, the Post Office Depart-ment supplied a computer tape containing theZIP code, city name, county, and State for eachZIP code listed in the 1967 National ZIP CodeDirectory.15 The tape also contained data iden-tifying major post offices in the United States.

the county from which

Since this Post Office (PO) tape containedZIP codes which crossed both State and countylines, corrections were needed to make the tapeuseable. Where ZIP codes crossed State lines.the PO tape carried cross references in thecounty field instead of the correct county name.For example, for the District of Columbia, ZIPcode 20015 had the entry Montgomery County,Md., and for Maryland the ZIP code 20015 hadWashington, D.C. as the county entry. Thesewere changed to reflect the correct county ineach State.

The PO tape also contained ZIP codes whichcrossed county lines. Where these were iden-tified the procedures were as follows:

1. When two post offices is different countiesshared the same ZIP code, the code was as-signed to the county containing the major postoffice. For example, ZIP code 35952 in Ala-bama was shared by a main post office inEtowah County and a branch post. office inBlount County. Since the major post officewas in Etowah County, the tape was changedto reflect that county for both entries.

2. When three or more post offices in differentcounties shared a ZIP code, the code -was as-signed to the county which appeared mostfrequently for the ZIP code. For example,ZIP code 23219 in Virginia was shared byfour post offices, three in Richmond City,and one in Chesterfield County. The countyentry was changed to Richmond City for theone post office in Chesterfield County.

In addition to correcting the PO tape it wasalso necessary to manually ZIP code over 300,000health personnel address records. When theserecords were ZIP coded and the PO tape cor-rections were completed, personnel were allo-cated to counties by ZIP code.

Since all ZIP codes in use in the United Stateswere not on the PO tape, many records couldnot be matched by ZIP code. A second methodwas then used to allocate this group to the ap-propriate county. The city was matched againstthe 1966 issue of Geographical Location CodesL6published by the General Services Administra-

don, and the corresponding county name wastaken. This publication lists city name and thecounty in which it is located for about 30.000cities in the United States. The second methodwas only used for cities that were located in onecounty.

A number of problems are inherent in allo-cating individuals to county by mailing address.By the ZIP code method, individuals are allo-cated to the county in which the post office islocated which is not necessarily the county inwhich they practict r reside. Post offices sit-uated on county lines may well serve more thanone county. This problem may have its greatesteffect on the county distributions in multi-countycities.

Another problem relates to the mailing ad-dresses given by the health personnel for theirlicenses. Physicians (M.D. and D.0.), dentists,podiatrists, and veterinarians tend to give theiroffice addresses, while nurses and pharmaciststend to give home addresses. The effect of usingthe office and home addresses by the differentgroups can be seen clearly in Washington, D.C.and its suburban area statistics:

A second part of this problem is the practiceof giving permanent mailing addresses for li-cense renewal by some individuals who are inmilitary or other- Federal service, or in tem-porary positions. These individuals are countedas if they resided in the State and county of theirpermanent mailing address.

STANDARD METROPOLITANSTATISTICAL AREA

As defined here, a standard metropolitanstatistical area (SMSA) is a county or group ofcontiguous counties which contains at least onecity of 50,000 inhabitants or more, or two con-tiguous cities with a combined population of atleast 50,000. In New England, however, SMSA'sconsist of towns and cities, rather than counties.Since town and city information is not available,the SMSA's in New England have been replacedby the metropolitan State economic areas, whichare defined in terms of whole counties. Where nometropolitan State economic area exists, the

SMSA has been replaced by the county whichmost closely approximates it (see table D).

These adjustments reduce the number ofSMSA's in the United States from 230 to 221 asof January 1968." See appendix I for the listingof SMSA codes, titles, and counties used in thisreport.

COUNTY GROUPS WITHIN STATESThe county groups within the States are based

on the "Demographic County Classification"developed in 1967 by the Department of SurveyResearch, American Medical Association. Thegroupings are defined in table E.

The 79 potential SMSA's in the new Group5 county classification are considered candi-dates for future SMSA status. A listing of poten-tial SMSA's and their counties appears in ap-pendix II.

Allocation to each county classification isbased on the SMSA definitions as of January 15,1968, established by the U.S. Office of Manage-ment and Budget, and the July 1, 1966, popu-lation as estimated by the U.S. Bureau of theCensus. All independent cities have been treatedas counties.
