Practice Areas: Family Practice, Pediatrics, Internal Medicine, OB/GYN and Psychiatry
Specialists: Yes; Specialists may apply but primary care physicians are prioritized
Application Review: Rolling Review based on applications received 10/1 until full
Notes: A practice site at which a J-1 Waiver physician will work must be located within an area that has a current federal designation as defined by the U.S. Health Resources and Services Administration (HRSA) as a HPSA or MUA/P. To use a flex spot, the facility must state its intent to apply for the slot in a "letter of need" and document that 20% of the patient encounters are from a primary care HPSA or MUA/P or 30% from a low income HPSA. The department will consider only one Flex 10 Waiver per FFY per an organization’s Federal Employer Identification Number (EIN).
