How can a rural community recruit a J-1 physician?
To learn about the Conrad State 30 program in your state, contact your state’s Primary Care Office (PCO). The PCO can help you determine if your community is eligible to recruit a J-1 physician, assist you in deciding whether pursuing a J-1 Visa Waiver is right for your community, and guide you through the recruitment process. Another resource that can help you in your recruitment efforts is the National Rural Recruitment and Retention Network (3R Net), which is a network made up of state organizations. 3R Net helps match health care professionals and rural practice opportunities. The 3R Net website lists contact information and J-1 employment opportunities for each state. Your job openings can be posted on this site to increase your chances of finding an appropriate candidate.
