Will ID’s New Med School Fill Physician Demand?

Did you know that Idaho ranks 50th nationwide in terms of family doctors per capita?

Idaho’s first medical school is planned to open this year.

Just in time, as across the state there is a high demand for physicians, that in some areas is going unfilled.

New educational institutions coming to Idaho could mean that more bright, capable Idahoans won’t have to leave the state to pursue the career they want.

How is higher education in Idaho aligning itself to other future career opportunities?
