Practice Areas: does not distinguish between primary and specialist care.
Specialists: Yes; all applications are considered, but only 10/30 spots can be specialists who can practice out of the Heath and Human Services designated health shortage areas.
Application Review: Rolling Review based on applications received 10/1 until full
Notes: A waiver request to the Maine Department of Health and Human Services must come from a health care facility in Maine on behalf of a J-1 physician (not directly from a J-1 physician). Applications can take up to 30 days to review; any applications received after all 30 slots are filled will be returned and can be processed in the next cycle (starting 10/1). Maine does use flex-10 positions.
