Efforts to improve the quality of health services and expand access to care depends on the availability of an adequate supply of appropriately prepared health workers. With the rapid pace of change in health care, it has become more important and more challenging to assess current and future health workforce needs. Among the most significant changes that affect the demand for health workers include: • The shifting focus of the health care delivery system to primary care and prevention; • Increasing use of team-based service delivery

    10 Krey Boulevard Rensselaer, NY 12144 December 9, 2013 Re: NYISO 2013 Congestion Assessment and Resource Integration Studies Report Dear NYISO Economic Planning Interested Parties: On November 19, 2013 the New York Independent System Operator, Inc. (NYISO) Board of Directors approved the attached 2013 Congestion Assessment and Resource Integration Studies Report (2013 CARIS Report). The 2013 CARIS Report was developed in compliance with the NYISO’s Tariff, specifically Attachment Y of the NYISO’s Open Access Transmission Tariff (OATT). Market participants actively engaged in the development of the 2013 CARIS model assumptions, the review of analysis results, and the review and approval of the final 2013 CARIS Report. The 2013 CARIS Report presents the impact of historic and projected congestion on the New York Control Area electric system and the potential benefits to New York consumers of generic generation, transmission, demand response, and energy efficiency solutions. The impact of historic and projected congestion is determined in accordance with the applicable provisions of the NYISO’s OATT, as are the potential benefits of the generic solutions. The NYISO’s OATT requires that New York system-wide production cost savings be the sole metric for the evaluation of the economic benefit of projects in the CARIS process. Under this tariff- prescribed process, a project’s projected benefits are, in turn, compared to the cost of that project to produce a benefit-cost ratio. The time-horizon over which project benefits are measured is limited to ten years. Analysis of additional metrics such as capacity market savings and environmental benefits are included in the 2013 CARIS Report, for informational purposes only.
