Opportunities for Pediatric Training in the Indian Health Service
Keyword(s):
As a partially trained pediatrician in the Indian Health Service, interested in the Report of the Committee on Indian Health, I would like to add some personal observations: 1. The number of training deferments through CORD is determined by needs of the Department of Defense, to which pediatric services are not essential although a convenience. Because pediatric services are critical in Indian Health where the population is markedly skewed to younger ages, could not the Committee propose that, while the draft continues, pediatricians might choose their branch of service?
