Health Care Workforce Expansion Act of 2025
Current understanding
Introduced legislation that would combine tuition grants with service obligations, expand Medicare Graduate Medical Education (GME) residency slots with a focus on psychiatry and primary care, and authorize HRSA relocation grants to steer clinicians toward rural and underserved areas. For students, it would create new tuition-assistance pathways tied to post-graduation service; for institutions (health professions schools and teaching hospitals), it would enlarge federally supported training capacity. Status: introduced.
