Healthcare Workforce Resilience Act aims to enhance the U.S. nurse and physician workforce by recapturing unused immigrant visas.
The Healthcare Workforce Resilience Act seeks to bolster the nation's healthcare workforce by recapturing unused immigrant visas for professional nurses and physicians. It amends the American Competitiveness in the Twenty-first Century Act of 2000 to provide premium and expedited processing for these visas, exempting them from skill-based numerical limitations. Up to 40,000 employment-based immigrant visas will be made available, with 25,000 reserved for nurses and 15,000 for physicians.
