Hawaii HB221 requires medical school graduates who benefited from resident tuition to serve as physicians in Hawaii for two years.
Hawaii HB221 addresses the state's physician shortage by requiring graduates of the University of Hawaii John A. Burns School of Medicine who benefited from resident tuition to serve as physicians in Hawaii for two years. The bill aims to ensure that graduates who received subsidized tuition use their medical knowledge for the benefit of Hawaii. Graduates must commence serving as a physician within five years after completing residency or fellowship. Those who fail to meet these requirements must reimburse the state for the difference between resident and non-resident tuition fees.
