Med official calls scholarship cut untimely
University of Kansas Medical Center officials reacted sedately to Gov. John Carlin's proposal last week to reduce scholarships to medical students.
A. J. Yarmat, associate director for the Division of Health Care Outreach and Continuing Education, called Carlin's intention to cut the scholarships premature. The scholarships are designed to alleviate doctor shortages.
"The Legislature seems to feel this is an old and expensive program, but we are yet to realize the effects," Yarmat said.
The program now pays tuition expenses for students who agree to practice in Kansas after graduation. Medical students who agree to work in areas designated as medically underserved, mostly western Kansas counties, receive tuition and $500 a year.
Carlin's 1983 budget proposal recommended that 563接待 behaviors be the Meet.
"It really too early to tell about the effect of this program," Yarmat said.
"The first trickle of physicians will not be until this summer."
Saman said that the first recipients of the program, students beginning medical school in the fall of 1978, won't be taught internships until early this summer.
"In 1979, there were 105 students on the plan and 60 entered three-year residency programs," Yarmat said.
In the past, the scholarship program was unlimited in the amount of students who received scholarships in return for their graduation. In the future, the program will be limited to 100 new
Yarmat said there was no way of knowing if the legislative program would help alleviate the lack of doctors in rural areas.
Yarmat said that approximately 75 to 80 percent of the Med Center's 800 students had been applying for the scholarships in recent years.
applications for students entering medical school.
"This program affects an awful lot of students and we have no way of knowing how long they will stay here—it's really too early to tell." he said.
