The funding was provided by the American Rescue Plan Act through the Kent County Levy Court. It will support the more than 70 medical residents working in Bayhealth’s hospitals and community-based physician practices across the state.

The graduate medical education program was developed in 2019 by Bayhealth to address the lack of a medical school within the state, the report said.

At the Becker’s 32nd Annual Meeting: The Business and Operations of ASCs, taking place October 29-31 in Chicago, ASC leaders, surgeons and healthcare executives will explore strategies to drive growth, enhance operational performance, navigate reimbursement challenges and prepare for the future of ambulatory surgery.
