What’s in it

AI summary The University of Iowa Hospitals and Clinics would have to offer interviews to certain medical residency applicants who have ties to Iowa, such as living in the state or attending an Iowa college. Medical students in Iowa would also get the chance to participate in clinical auditions for the specialties they apply for. Every year, the hospital must send a report to state leaders about these interviews and auditions.¹
