A 4326 New Jersey General Assembly · 2024-2025 Regular Session

Revises process for certain medical schools to receive authorization to operate clinical clerkship programs in New Jersey.

Bill A4326 revises New Jersey's process for authorizing clinical training programs at foreign medical schools meeting U.S. accreditation standards. It creates a new "Advisory Committee on Alternatively Accredited Medical School Clinical Clerkships" to review applications and make recommendations, requiring hospitals to report student demographics (including race, ethnicity, and gender) for these programs. The committee will evaluate applications based on state healthcare needs and recommend approvals to the Commissioner of Health. This bill directly affects international medical schools seeking to place students in New Jersey hospitals for clinical training.
