The challenges posed by chronic conditions, and the burden set by rare diseases, increasingly call for skilled professionals at all levels. Unfortunately, forecasts done by EU highlight a deficit of one million healthcare workers\u00a0by 2020.<\/p>\n<p>This scenario opens to new questions on how we&#8217;ll manage health workforce planning, recruitment and retention. Further, it seems it&#8217;s time to get serious about changes in the skills mix and competencies of the health workforce. Changes that should be driven by needs-based services management approaches rather than by professional interests. This, and much more, is addressed in the paper by Kuhlmann et al. A must read for all that have interest in health workforce and health systems.<\/p>\n<p><em>If you are an EHMA Member, please <a href=\"mailto:governance@ehma.org\">contact us<\/a> to access the journal<\/em><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&nbsp;
