Summary

The bill revises the definition of an academic medical center so a National Cancer Institute‑designated comprehensive cancer center can qualify by training at least 25 residents or fellows and without Western Association of Schools and Colleges accreditation. It also tightens the rules for who can sit on the Medical Board’s review committee and caps each center at five special faculty permits per year. The changes affect physicians seeking teaching permits and the institutions that host them.
