Sense of Congress relating to graduate medical education

It is the sense of Congress that eliminating the limit of the number of residency positions that receive some level of Medicare support under section 1886(h) of the Social Security Act (42 U.S.C. 1395ww(h)), also referred to as the Medical graduate medical education cap, is critical to— (1) ensuring an appropriate supply of physicians to meet the health care needs in the United States; (2) facilitating equitable access for all who seek health care; (3) increasing the racial and ethnic diversity of physicians in the United States; and (4) mitigating disparities in health and health care.
