Thanks to the comprehensive efforts of osteopathic advocates and stakeholders, congressional support for the Community Training, Education, and Access for Medical Students (Community TEAMS) Act, H.R. 3885, is growing. Representatives Darren Soto (D-FL) and Shri Thanedar (D-MI) have signed on as cosponsors of H.R. 3885. This important bipartisan legislation will create a new Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) grant program for medical schools to partner with Federally Qualified Health Centers, Rural Health Clinics and other healthcare facilities located in medically underserved communities to increase medical school clinical rotations. Advocates can urge Congress to support H.R. 3885 through the AACOM Action Center. |
