Loma Linda University Health (LLUH) Education Consortium has been awarded over $3.5 million by Physicians for a Healthy California (California Medical Association Foundation), the highest amount received this cycle from CalMedForce to support medical training, expand residency programs, and grow the physician workforce in San Bernardino and Riverside counties.
“This funding allows LLUH to accept 20 additional residency positions to serve the needs of medically underserved groups across our communities,” said Daniel W. Giang ’83, associate dean for Graduate Medical Education.
Since 2016, LLUH Education Consortium has received nearly $13 million through CalMedForce grants to support resident physicians that stay and serve the growing Inland Empire region.
Currently, there are over 900 residents and fellows training in over 60 accredited training programs at LLUH. Many of these physicians and dentists will practice in the Inland Empire and throughout California.
