Bipartisan Bill from Bucshon, Grassley, Schatz, Bera Would Help Document Areas Underserved by General Surgeons
Rep. Larry Bucshon, M.D. (R-Ind.), Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa), Sen. Brian Schatz (D-Hawaii), and Rep. Ami Bera (D-Calif.) have introduced bipartisan legislation that would produce high quality data on where general surgeons are in short supply around the country. The need for general surgeons is especially high in rural or other under-served communities.
