The American Medical Student Association (AMSA) Foundation is assisting the U.S. Public Health Service in increasing the number of primary care physicians trained and committed to practice in medically underserved areas. In collaboration with the American Academy of Family Physicians, the Ambulatory Pediatrics Association, and the Society of General Internal Medicine, AMSA conducted an assessment of federally-funded residency programs to identify and describe their affiliations with federally-funded community and migrant health centers (C/MHCs). Of the 260 programs assessed and the 147 responses, 125 offer community-based training. Of these, 73 offer training in primary care centers and 39 offer training in federally-funded C/MHCs. Residents training in the C/MHCs have positive experiences in both personal and professional development and are frequently hired by the health centers upon graduation. Benefits realized by the affiliations include a community orientation for the residents and enhancement of service and education missions for the collaborating institutions.
美国医学生协会（AMSA）基金会正在协助美国公共卫生服务局增加接受培训并致力于在医疗服务欠缺地区执业的初级保健医生数量。AMSA与美国家庭医生学会、门诊儿科学协会以及普通内科医学协会合作，对联邦资助的住院医师培训项目进行了评估，以确定并描述这些项目与联邦资助的社区及流动医疗中心（C/MHCs）的附属关系。在评估的260个项目中，有147个做出了回应，其中125个提供基于社区的培训。在这些项目中，73个在初级保健中心提供培训，39个在联邦资助的C/MHCs提供培训。在C/MHCs接受培训的住院医师在个人和职业发展方面都有积极的体验，并且毕业后经常被这些医疗中心聘用。这种附属关系带来的好处包括使住院医师具备社区导向意识，以及加强合作机构的服务和教育使命。
