Our nation, by its policies in child development, education, admissions, higher education, college, funding, medical education, insurance, and health - is a market forces machine for concentrating physicians in Major Medical Center Areas. Any medical school can graduate major medical center physicians. Few have success with physician distribution. Every school that does so has greater admissions of lower scoring, older, lower income, and different types of students. They also have greater choice of family medicine, primary care, rural careers, and underserved locations.
