Bill overview
The Resident Physician Shortage Reduction Act of 2025 aims to address physician shortages, particularly in residency programs, by increasing the number of available residency positions. It does this by amending the Social Security Act to allow hospitals to request and receive more resident slots, with a portion dedicated to hospitals already operating over their resident limits. The bill also establishes a study on strategies for increasing diversity in the healthcare workforce and creates programs to support the development of rural residency programs. Finally, it provides for technical assistance to support these programs.
