Stefanik Helps Introduce Bill to Address Doctor Shortage

Location: Washington, DC

"Since 2009, over 50 waivers have been given to foreign-born medical school graduates to practice in counties in my district. That's 50 more doctors, who specialize in areas including anesthesiology, cardiology, infectious disease, internal medicine, neurology, pediatrics, psychiatry, radiology, transplants, urology, and more. Reclaiming unused waivers from the previous fiscal year is a simple, common-sense approach to address the critical nationwide physician shortages, without increasing the number of visas."
