Does Rush offer combined Med-Peds and international electives?
Rush offers a number of combined Med-Peds electives. Almost any elective can be combined although some fields are more amenable to combination than others. Although electives away from the institution are becoming harder to justify due to the federal government’s reduction in Medicare funding for residency training, the Med-Peds program considers all resident requests for away electives and Rush allows each resident to take one elective at an unaffiliated site.
