Practice Intentions of Family Physicians Trained in Teaching Health Centers: The Value of Community-Based Training

Abstract: Family medicine residents who graduate from Federally Qualified Health Center-aligned TeachingHealth Center (THC) training residencies are nearly twice as likely to pursue employment in safetynet settings compared with non-THC graduates. This trend has been consistent over the past few years, suggesting that the program is fulfilling its mission to strengthen primary care in underserved settings.

“…For example, researchers have identified numerous factors associated with important workforce outcomes, yet these results have had little general effect on training. 18–22 Similarly, there is little evidence that training expansion has had any correlation with state workforce needs (e.g., geographic location, specialty type) or community health needs assessments or that redistributions of training slots have met federal intentions (e.g., to establish more rural training programs). 23–25 Instead, teaching hospitals seem to use public funds to establish training programs within more lucrative clinical services (e.g., cardiology, orthopedics).…”

“…These experiences also could help to shape future practice choices. For example, the HRSA-funded Teaching Health Centers medical residency training program is associated with significantly increasing the likelihood that residents will choose primary care practice in underserved settings .
