Ease the debt burden facing today's allopathic and osteopathic medical students who are U.S. Citizens.

Created by A.L. on January 31, 2014

On average minting a new physician will cost around $200,000. With a healthcare system expanding, more people are covered under insurance but over 50% of physicians will be retiring in the next 15 years.
The financial burden placed in the shoulders of medical students is irresponsible of the U.S. Government, which has implemented new laws expanding healthcare coverage for millions of Americans.
Physician pay is in decline but debt is on the rise. The U.S. Government should take the necessary steps to ensure competent and capable students enter the physician profession. This could be accomplished by subsidizing medical school loans for tuition, lowering ridiculous interest rates even more and developing more loan/debt forgiveness programs.
For the health of America.
