Bill overview
The Medical Graduate Investment Act of 2024 aims to increase the number of medical students, particularly at historically Black colleges and universities and other minority-serving institutions. It authorizes the Secretary of Health and Human Services to award grants to eligible schools of medicine and osteopathic medicine to support tuition, faculty, equipment, and clinical training, with a focus on serving medically underserved areas and increasing enrollment by at least 5% annually. The act also requires matching funds from eligible entities and mandates reporting to Congress on the program's effectiveness and outcomes.
