Under current law, the Medical College of Wisconsin and the UW-Madison Medical School (medical schools) must submit a biennial report to the governor and JCF that includes information about minority student recruitment and enrollment, state resident enrollment, faculty salaries, cooperative educational programs, and residency placement of graduates. Current law also requires the medical schools to submit a biennial report to the governor and legislature regarding family practice residencies. This bill combines the foregoing reports into one biennial report that must be submitted to the governor, JCF, and legislature.
This bill also requires both medical schools to submit an annual report to the governor and the legislature that describes all of the following: 1) the number of students enrolled in rural or underserved urban medicine programs; 2) the medical specialties and residency locations of the students; and 3) the initial postresidency practice locations for program graduates.
