7 A Case for Diversity in the Physician Workforce  Increases access to underserved  Advances cultural competence among all  Increases patient satisfaction/trust  Broadens research agenda with respect to racial/ethnic disparities. -IOM“In the Nation’s Compelling Interest”, 2004

8 Barriers Linguistic Barriers (LEP)= Risk  Among LEP Hispanics + an interpreter, only 70% fully understood what the doctor was saying  61% LEP Hispanics uninsured compared to 36% EP Hispanics, 30% African Americans and 20 % NH Whites  LEP + Uninsured = ‘double burden’ as 2/3rds lack a usual source of health care Doty, MM Commonwealth Fund

13 The Global Physician Pipeline: International Medical Graduates (IMGs)  1,950 medical schools and 350,000 graduates/year  US has relied on IMGs for 40+ years  Staff safety net hospitals/waivers to serve in underserved communities

14 IMGs as a percentage of the U.S. physician workforce

15 America’s IMG Physicians Country of Origin

16 Why so Few IMGs from Latin America?  Language of instruction is rarely English  Unfamiliar with U.S. physician training process  Bias against F-1 (Student Visas) despite J-1 waivers  U.S. Medical Licensing Exams (3) + Prep. Courses  Cost of living

17 Race/Ethnicity of Practicing Physicians Compared to Population California, 2010, N= 94,631 Sources: AMA Physician Masterfile, 2010; Medical Board of California, 2010

18 Why UCLA IMG?  Need + Limited Resources  Trade-Offs & Tensions  UCLA IMG Model & Outcomes
