What This Bill Would Do
This bill requires the federal government to conduct long-term studies on the effectiveness of health profession training programs and mandates that at least 4% of the program's annual funding be dedicated to these evaluations.
The bill changes how federal health training grants are managed by diverting a fixed portion of existing funds toward mandatory performance tracking, which could impact the total amount of direct training services available to participants.
