Shibikom“The Impact of Financial Capability on the Well-being of Low-Income Households”Doctoral student Qualifying CommitteeDevelopment of MHSA Internship ProgramIn 2011, I began leading the Health Policy and Management department’s formal internship program, a 12-week experience for students finishing their first year of the two-year Master’s of Health Administration (MHSA) degree. Prior to my involvement, the program did not have a curriculum in place to prepare students for the experience, and no formal relationships with preceptor sites in the community existed. In the first year, I developed a new curriculum for students and established formal preceptor sites with the University of Kansas Hospital (KUH), ensuring a high quality experience for all students. Currently, I am developing more formal internship relationships with several hospitals in the Kansas City Metropolitan area as well as several health-related industries where students historically are interested in pursuing internships. A formal alumni mentoring program, which has never existed in the department, is being established as part of the overall internship learning experience as well. Development of MHSA Fellowship ProgramIn 2011, when I began leading the internship program for Health Policy and Management, I also began building relationships within the Kansas City area to establish formal Fellowship programs for our graduates. While internships typically occur over the summer between year one and year two of the MHSA curriculum, fellowships are a post-MHSA experience, typically lasting one to two years. In 2012, I developed a formal fellowship initiative with the KUH for our graduating students. These are the first fellowships established between the Health Policy and Management department and the university’s teaching hospital. In addition, I am developing more formal fellowship relationships with hospitals in the Kansas City Metropolitan area to provide more comprehensive and diverse opportunities for MHSA graduates. Development of Educational MaterialsI created the syllabi and implemented the courses listed below in their entirety. For the first four courses listed, I approached the department chair requesting to develop the class because I recognized how they could add value to the curriculum. For the fifth course, I completely revamped the course material to be more in line with accreditation standards. The final three courses were all new courses, developed based on student need and feedback. The majority of these courses include online, didactic, and small group learning methodologies to maximize student learning opportunities.

The “Mass Casualty Capstone Event” listed in the table below involved 11 different disciplines and approximately 1,000 training participants. Over the 48-hour training, a collaborative, multidisciplinary response to a staged disaster/terrorist attack occurred at multiple locations in Sedgwick County and across the South Central Kansas region. The response triggered “victims” to 20 hospitals across South Central Kansas to test surge capacity and emergency preparedness plans. It also triggered an epidemiological emergency, testing regional public health response capabilities. The event also involved developing an after action report to provide guidance on how the communities could enhance their response efforts in the future.

SERVICE AND ENGAGED SCHOLARSHIP ACHIEVEMENTSSummary of Service and Engaged Scholarship Experience and Achievements:As Associate Vice Chancellor, I led KUMC’s community engagement efforts. A description of these responsibilities is provided below. Institute for Community Engagement: The Institute for Community Engagement supports engaged scholarship across KUMC. The Institute collaborates with health care providers, community leaders and like-minded organizations in every Kansas county and in dozens of other communities throughout the region and world to improve health. Partnerships and initiatives included:Educating a diverse health care workforce that helps solve today's health challenges with a team-based approach Encouraging future generations to pursue health care careers, by showcasing the exciting opportunities and rewards of working in the health sectorExpanding access to cutting-edge care close to home through outreach clinics and regional collaborations of hospitals and health care organizations Improving access to specialty health care by leveraging technological advances that allow health care providers to see and monitor patients from a distance Growing the number of health providers in rural Kansas communities, matching top-notch health care professionals with innovative rural communities dedicated to positive health outcomesProviding opportunities for professional growth through continuing education courses, meetings, and symposia that also encourage collaboration among providersEnhancing treatment for diseases that substantially affect community health such as diabetes and cancerImproving quality of life for vulnerable populations through community-based research and community-driven solutionsAs Associate Vice Chancellor of the Institute for Community Engagement, I had formal oversight and direct budget authority over several departments, listed and summarized below:Continuing Education: Since 1911, KUMC Continuing Education programs have benefited physicians, nurses, and allied health professionals from Kansas, the nation, and around the world. Clinical and scientific conferences and symposia cover the latest advances in research, diagnosis, and treatments in many clinical areas. University of Kansas Medical Center health professionals stay current by attending departmental grand rounds. Annually, the CE office helps administer and accredits more than 600 grand-round sessions. All sessions are open to community health professionals; some are available through electronic media. Eighty-five percent of our conferences and symposia are accredited for both physicians and nurses, and many are accredited for other health professionals as well. The CE program at KUMC is nationally accredited by the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education and the American Nurses Credentialing Center. It is the largest provider of continuing medical education in Kansas.Center for Telemedicine and Telehealth: The University of Kansas Center for Telemedicine and Telehealth (KUCTT) is a recognized world leader in telehealth services and research. Beginning in 1991 with a single connection to a community in western Kansas, the Kansas telehealth network now has accessed more than 100 sites throughout the state, has conducted many thousands of clinical consultations for the people of Kansas, and has hosted hundreds of educational events for health professionals, teachers, students, and the public. The KUCTT has become an integral piece of several national and international collaborations, which have demonstrated the significant potential of telehealth technologies to eliminate distance as a barrier to health care. With more than 24,000 clinical consultations and educational events distributed across numerous allied health, nursing, and medical specialties, the KUCTT has become one of the oldest and most successful telehealth programs in the world.Outreach Aircraft: The University of Kansas Medical Center's Outreach Aircraft provides physicians, faculty, and other KUMC personnel with opportunities for collaboration on projects to better serve Kansans. University of Kansas Medical Center entities coordinate with the University Airplane Department, which schedules university aircraft, state owned aircraft and charter airplanes. The Outreach Aircraft division allows KUMC professionals a multitude of opportunities for participation in KU-sponsored activities and for connecting with their counterparts around Kansas. In addition, the aircraft provides rural residents with increased access to medical care by bringing specialists to various locations statewide. Furthermore, Outreach Aircraft is a means for providing advanced levels of health care education to rural communities. Rural Health Education and Services: Rural Health Education and Services was established in 1990 to address health care needs in rural Kansas. The department administers three programs: the Kansas Bridging Plan, a loan-forgiveness program for resident physicians; the Kansas Recruitment and Retention Center, a centralized, statewide program specializing in health care workforce development, retention, and strategic planning; and the Kansas Locum Tenens, a program that provides temporary coverage for a rural physician's medical practice. Additional services include Kansas Connections, an online?newsletter with a rural Kansas health care focus; Kansas Career Opportunities, a health care career fair; Marketing Services, quality-oriented, cost-effective services to handle all marketing needs for rural health care providers; seminars for medical students; and educational updates for rural communities.Statewide Area Health Education Centers: The University of Kansas Medical Center?Statewide Area Health Education Centers (AHECs) were founded in 1978, through the combined efforts of the Governor, the State Legislature, and KUMC, as the primary educational outreach effort of KUMC and the principal means of decentralizing medical and other health professions education throughout the state. Four?centers?- in Garden City, Hays, Kansas City, and Pittsburg - offer programs, continuing education, and services to medicine, nursing, and allied health students as well as to rural providers.Each AHEC extends its programs across the state, making programs and services available to citizens, rural providers, and students. Quality training experiences in community settings away from the academic medical center expose students to practice opportunities and realities in rural communities, helping to encourage rural practice choices. The AHECs also address the needs of communities and health professionals by offering continuing education programs and strengthening collaboration among providers, educational institutions, hospitals, nursing homes, health organizations, and county extensions.A brief summary of Institute for Community Engagement initiatives and achievements from 2008-2011 includes:Enrolling 90,907 health professionals in accredited Continuing Education programs;Connecting over 18,500 telemedicine participants for clinical, educational, and administrative activities; ?Providing over 300 outreach flights for over 6,000 patient consultations in outreach clinics;Placing dozens of physicians to practice in rural/underserved communities; andInvolving over 2,000 Kansas high school students in health career promotion programs. ?Recognition of Scholarship in the MediaMy work has been highlighted in the media, including being quoted in US News & World Report, covered by the Associated Press, and being featured in the Kansas City Star, Kansas City Business Journal, Kansas City Nursing News, Topeka Capital-Journal, Lawrence Journal-World, Wichita Eagle, Wichita Business Journal, Disaster News Network, Focus science magazine, and Pentecostal Messenger. I have also been interviewed on several Kansas City television stations on numerous occasions. For example, the mass casualty event I led was featured in 107 news stories on local and regional media outlets during the week-long event. During my time as Director of Telemedicine and Executive Director of the Midwest Cancer Alliance, my research was featured in media outlets and in national publications on dozens of occasions. For example, the MCA was highlighted in the NCI Cancer Bulletin on clinical trials: , "Taking Action to Diversify Clinical Cancer Research." As Vice Chancellor of the KU Edwards Campus, I’ve published articles in local newspapers, been interviewed on local media outlets, and had initiatives highlighted on local news channels on numerous occasions. Diversity, Equity, InclusionI co-chaired the Diversity, Cultural Competence, and Professionalism Committee at KUMC. This committee was tasked with inventorying existing campus resources, reviewing best practice models on the national level, and ultimately making recommendations to the Executive Vice Chancellor to enhance and improve medical center initiatives in these areas. As Vice Chancellor of the KU Edwards Campus, developed overarching diversity, equity, and inclusion strategic plan for the campus to include goals and metrics for staff, faculty, and students to enhance overall efforts across these areas.

Grant ReviewerI have reviewed grants, or currently review grants, for the following agencies:Advanced Technology-Telemedicine, Department of Defense Peer Reviewed Medical Research Program (PRMRP), Washington, DCHealth Resources and Services Administration (HRSA), Bethesda, MDOffice for the Advancement of Telehealth (OAT), HRSA, Washington, DCSmall Business Innovation Research Grants (SBIR), National Institute of Health (NIH), Bethesda, MDTechnologies Opportunities Program (TOP), Department of Commerce, Washington, DCWork with Legislators and PolicymakersI have had the opportunity to interact and work with legislators and policymakers on many occasions. Three content areas, in particular, include telemedicine, emergency response, and workforce development. These are briefly described below. Telemedicine: In regards to telemedicine, I have provided a number of presentations (listed in the next section) and conducted dozens of demonstrations to illustrate its impact on rural/underserved communities for legislators and policymakers. One project in particular, TeleKidcare, was so well received that Governor Graves cited it in his State of the State address as an intervention to improve the health of children in the school setting. In subsequent years, the department received $2 million over six years through an earmark in the state General Use (GU) budget to fund similar projects across the state. In addition, reimbursement is a significant challenge and barrier for telemedicine. Based on research and development conducted within the Center for Telemedicine and Telehealth, I was able to acquire $250,000 in one-time funding from the Kansas State Medicaid office to develop and implement reimbursement policies in Kansas to facilitate the growth and expansion of services across the state. Emergency Response: Emergency response is a major concern in Kansas. With my research and expertise in this area, I have been in a position to inform policymakers, specifically in my role as a member of the Governor’s Kansas Bioterrorism Coordinating Council and as a member of the State Training Advisory Team. Both committees influence related policy, training, and funding issues that impact the emergency response capabilities of the state. Workforce Development: During my tenure at KUMC, I have resided on numerous state and regional committees designed to enhance the health-related workforce across the state. One example (of many) relates to work with several primary care task force initiatives. These committees developed strategies and recommendations that I presented to the Kansas Governor’s office to enhance primary care physician education and retention. They also provided a framework for medical school expansion within the state of Kansas – a major KUMC initiative that was implemented in Wichita and Salina in 2011. Johnson County Education Research Tax (JCERT): In my role at KU Edwards, I’m responsible for representing the university on the JCERT initiative. JCERT was created in November 2008 when residents invested in the county's future by voting for a one-eighth cent sales tax. The proceeds from this tax, first assessed in April 2009, generate more than $15 million a year to fund higher education and degree offerings through a unique partnership among Johnson County, the University of Kansas and Kansas State University.

A brief description of these partnerships is provided below:Armenia: This initiative is funded by the State Partnership Program, which is administered by the United States National Guard Bureau, and links American states with developing countries across the globe. I led the effort to have a signed Agreement of Cultural, Educational, and Scientific Cooperation to promote further cooperation between the United States and Armenia, KUMC and Yerevan State Medical University, in the fields of medicine, peacekeeping, and emergency management activities.Brazil: From 1998-2000, I led the effort from KUMC to partner with C.E.S.A.R (Recife Center for Advanced Studies and Systems), a private institution that creates products, services, and companies using Information Technology and Communication (ITC) in Recife, Brazil to help build their telemedicine infrastructure and to provide education and medical consultation in the area of infectious disease. My efforts specifically helped them by lending KUMC’s telemedicine expertise and experience to benefit their mission. China: In 1998, I was funded by Butler Manufacturing to conduct a cross-cultural assessment of their Shanghai-China operations. From this initiative, I was able to develop research that led to my dissertation, which focused on Chinese organizational commitment in Foreign Invested Enterprises (FIE). Research involved interviews with 55 CEOs of FIEs based in China. Currently, I work with our Confucius Institute () located at KU Edwards to engage K-12 schools, businesses and community organizations to learn more about Chinese language and culture.Saudi Arabia/Eastern and African Markets: In 2012, a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) was signed between GE Healthcare, (through its registered joint venture GE El Seif Healthcare Arabia in Riyadh, Kingdom of Saudi Arabia), and the University of Kansas Medical Center to express a mutual commitment to establish collaboration for the purposes of delivering products and/or services in select markets of the Eastern and African Grown Markets (EAGM). I led this initiative on behalf of KUMC. Collaborations explored partnerships relating to residency training, informatics training, health care management, radiology, and ICU consultations, to name a few. Professional SocietiesI have been a member, or I am currently a member, of the following selected professional societies:Academy of Management (AoM)American Council on Education (ACE)American Public Health Association (APHA)American Telemedicine Association (ATA)Association of Telehealth Service Providers (ATSP)Council for Advancement and Support of Education (CASE)EDUCAUSEHealthcare Information and Management Systems Society (HIMSS) International Communication Association, National Communication Association (NCA)International Society for Telemedicine (ISFT) Kansas Public Health Association (KPHA) ................
