The Utah Health Workforce Information Center (HWIC) was established within the Utah Department of Health and Human Services to serve as the state entity for health workforce data analytics. Under the guidance of the Health Workforce Advisory Council (HWAC), the HWIC engages with stakeholders across the state to assess the supply, demand, distribution, and retention of healthcare providers, helping determine progress toward the goal of Utah having a diverse, well-qualified and sustainable workforce that equitably meets the needs of all its residents.

Prior to July 1, 2022, these activities had been conducted by the Utah Medical Education Council (UMEC), whose duties were modified and formalized as a subcommittee to focus on medical education funding and administration under the Utah Health Workforce Advisory Council.
