On March 18, the AAMC issued a press release to endorse the Resident Physician Shortage Reduction Act of 2021—introduced by Senators Bob Menendez (D-N.J.) and John Boozman (R-Ark.) and Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.). This bipartisan bill aims to expand the number of Medicare-supported medical residency positions by 2,000 annually for seven years, directly addressing the growing physician shortage and improving health care access for all.
