Immigration Options for Physicians
Chicago partner Jen Breuer co-authored an article for BNA Insights titled, “Immigration Options for Physicians.”
According to a 2010 report from the Association of American Medical Colleges’s (AAMC) Center for Workforce Studies, demand for physicians will outpace supply through at least 2025. Despite this projected deficit, health care employers still face a difficult and lengthy process in obtaining visas and green cards for foreign nationals to fill the U.S. need for health care professionals.
Jen’s article provides a broad overview of the main visa options available to health care employers for their foreign national physician employees and the challenges employers can face with each of these options.
