Hi everyone,
I would like to ask anyone out there if they know what are the Medicare funding issues involved if you want to change specialty and program.
I am already a PGY 1 in family practice and want to change specialties.
There is Medicare funding for resident salaries alloted to each program for the duration of residency. Some if not every program is not willing to take a person already doing residency due to lack of funding.
If I want to change specialties from FM to IM, is there a way that the funding issue can be SOLVED so the program will accept me.
Thanks and hope to hear from you.
