[Hlthpol] Residency Training in FQHC: Experience?

[Myral Robbins]

There is much experience within our FM residency programs, both positive
and negative with FQHCs. As I have attempted to gain insight from the
experience of others, I have come to knowledge of starting programs
anew, replacing existing programs, and "two-tier" merger. As a dually
accredited program, we have recently developed an alliance with our FQHC
to support their OB so that we can meet the rigor of ACGME residency
standards in OB. We are exploring further relationship to expand the
residency to accommodate a track at the FQHC so I would appreciate being
kept "in the loop" as responses to this inquiry are received.

HI Fellows:  I am getting in touch to see if any of you have had
experience setting up/running a family practice residency program in a
federally qualified health center.  An Ohio hospital is in the process
of starting a GME program in a FQHC, and one of the administrators
involved would very much like to talk to someone who has experience with
the business end of such a venture.

 
Thanks for getting in touch if you have experience with a hospital/FQHC
residency program – particularly the reimbursement process.  
 
Many thanks.  NC
