Join Fragomen Partner Sarah Peterson and Associate Nicole Bennett for an insightful session addressing the pressing shortage of healthcare providers in the U.S., encompassing essential roles such as physicians, nurses and allied health professionals. Discover how strategic immigration initiatives can serve as a crucial solution and empower employers to enhance healthcare accessibility. This session will delve into current and innovative strategies for recruiting and retaining healthcare providers through smart immigration programs.

We will review the common immigration pathways to employ international healthcare workers in both clinical and academic settings including J-1 waivers, H-1B and numerical cap exemptions, TN, and O-1. We will also review the main green card pathways including PERM, Physician National Interest Waivers (PNIW), EB-1/A and EB-1/B. We will conclude by summarizing pending immigration legislation that warrants support to ensure that our U.S. immigration system evolves into a modern and viable pathway to ensure better access to healthcare. Additional topics include:

  • How International Physicians come to the U.S.
  • J-1 status, 212(e) two-year home residence requirement, and J-1 waiver
  • H-1B status and H-1B Cap Exemption Options
  • H-1B Alternatives
  • Green Card Pathways including PERM, PNIW, EB-1/A and EB-1/B
  • Immigration options for Nurses and Allied Health
  • Legislative Updates including State Laws impacting International Physician Recruitment

Don't miss this opportunity to stay at the forefront of creating a resilient and sustainable healthcare workforce. We encourage you to submit your questions in advance via the registration form.
