An Example of the Impact of Health Reform on the Healthcare Workforce in Georgia Approximately 1.2 million Georgians will gain health coverage through Medicaid and Health Insurance Exchanges Rough estimates indicate that this coverage will generate 1.2 – 2 million additional physician visits per year in Georgia* This translates into an additional shortfall of 300-400 physicians in Georgia* The elimination of copays, deductibles, and coinsurance for many preventive services may also increase the demand for primary care providers *Dr. Patricia Ketsche, Associate Professor, Institute of Health Administration, J. Mack Robinson College of Business, Georgia State University
