    Dear Chairmen Wyden and Neal, and Ranking Members Crapo and Brady:

    On behalf of the Graduate Medical Education (GME) Advocacy Coalition, the undersigned groups urge you to build upon last year’s historic investment in the health care workforce, and in particular GME, as you consider the upcoming budget reconciliation legislation. Physicians are a vital component of our nation’s health care infrastructure, and as we have seen throughout the continuing COVID-19 pandemic, investments to increase the number of physicians are sorely needed. Our groups urge you to include policies that would increase Medicare support for GME in the budget reconciliation legislation.
