发帖数: 1299 | 1 With the current budget situation, GME funding cut from Medicare/Medicaid
seems unavoidable. The question is how much. Technically, the hospitals
should pick up the differences, as residents are the main labor forces.
Personally, I don't think the number of residency spots will be cut, as the
physicians are still in shortage.
The most likely outcome is the cut of benefit, like book fees, meeting fund,
etc.
There are many funny proposals open in the air.
1. Freeze or cut the salary
2. No salary for residents
3. IMG pay the training fees and AMG not.
Anyone heard other funny proposals? Most likely all these proposals won't
even be brought for discussion in the house floor.
Many hospitals in NJ, NY, MA cannot run without residents. | A*******s

Not sure about residency training, maybe a better opportunity for FMGs.

发帖数: 467 | 4 It would be very demoralizing if FMG works the same without any payment or
with less payment. Personally speaking, it violated the law of working. I
think that many FMG families could not even survive. Slot cut might be the
most possible solution if the bill has been passed. | C*****D
发帖数: 1299 | 5 you have post a bunch recently, got a position already?
Don't worry. When you have time, pay attention to some bills, there are far
more ridiculous ones, such as chewing gum in test, postage featuring Brat
Pitt, etc.
许多议员像人大代表样, 经常会弄些奇谈怪论.
For equal work law, I don't think the hospitals dare to pay people
differently with the same job description. The only thing they can do, just
charge a higher fee for ECFMG certificate, which is more practical.
Cutting the residency slot is not going to be an immediate action, in long
run, it might be the result. Hospitals need time to get more PAs.
