The program is intended to provide physician services in areas which typically have difficulty attracting and retaining physicians.
Up to 3 waiver slots have been reserved for the following specialties: obstetrics and gynecology, pediatrics, and child/adolescent psychiatry.
Primary care and specialty trained physicians are eligible to apply.
This is an incentive program that offers foreign physicians a visa waiver, allowing them to work in the U.S.
