Maryland SB466 alters the tax credit for physicians serving as preceptors in areas with health care workforce shortages.

Maryland SB466 modifies the tax credit for licensed physicians who serve as preceptors in areas identified as having health care workforce shortages. The bill repeals the requirement that students in physician preceptorship programs must be enrolled in a medical school or medical training program in the state and reduces the required number of hours for a preceptor rotation for community-based clinical training. The Maryland Department of Health will issue tax credit certificates to eligible physicians, with a maximum of $100,000 in certificates issued per taxable year.
