Bill > SF2516

This bill appropriates a total of $3 million over two fiscal years (2026 and 2027) to support medical residency programs at CentraCare, specifically at Rice Memorial Hospital and St. Cloud Hospital. The funds will be allocated from the state's general fund through the Office of Higher Education as a grant to CentraCare. The appropriation is intended to help establish new residency programs, maintain existing ones, and cover various associated costs. These costs can include administrative expenses, curriculum development, resident recruitment, training efforts, and resident stipends. The bill aims to support medical education and training by providing financial resources to expand and sustain medical residency opportunities in these two Minnesota hospitals, which could help address healthcare workforce needs in the region by supporting the training of future medical professionals.
