Question

Since there are not enough American medical school graduates to fill the residencies of the smaller non-teaching hospitals, would not the employment of nurse practitioners, physician assistants, or young physicians starting practice be considered first, before recruiting foreign medical graduates?

Answer 1

The employment of nurse practitioners, physician assistants, or young physicians starting practice should be considered first, before recruiting foreign medical graduates as there are not enough American medical schools and the cost of schooling in healthcare is very high in the USA. Further, since the USA is a developed and scientifically advanced country it teaches the latest skills to its healthcare professional. Hence the nurse practitioners, physician assistants, or young physicians starting practice should be considered first, before recruiting foreign medical graduates.
