The Resident Physician Shortage Reduction Act of 2025 aims to tackle the growing shortage of resident physicians in the United States by increasing the number of residency positions available in hospitals. This is crucial as the demand for healthcare services rises. The Act proposes to add 2,000 residency positions annually from 2026 through 2032, with the Secretary of Health and Human Services overseeing the distribution process. Hospitals that already exceed their resident limits will receive specific allocations, while others can apply based on their capacity to train more residents.
