. . FUNCTIONS

a |

The Bureau of Health Resources Development (BERD) was established in
July 1973 as a major component of the Health Resources Administration (HRA)

- in a reorganization of the U.S Department of Health, Education, and Welfare's
Public Health Service Programs. .

The Bureau consists of four divisions from the former Bureau of Health .

Manpower Education—--the divisions of Medicine, Dentistry, Nursing and Associated

Health Professions--and two from the former Health Services and Mental Health

Administration--the divisions of Comprehensive Health Planning and Facilities :

 

from the National Institutes of Health into the newly former HRA as part of the

reorganization. 4

 

 

The Bureau focuses on production, utilization, distribution, and

rationalization of human and physical resources in the health services field.
Manpower activity centered in BHRD assures maximum capability for research,
demonstration, and program management. It provides a single administrative
professional setting for manpower education, training, task analyses, continuing

education, and such special activities as those related to geographic and speciality

maldistribution.
