Career & Continuing Education
Overview
Level 9 represents the practicing physician phase, where board-certified physicians enter clinical practice with support from loan repayment programs, placement services, and continuing medical education. This level spans the entirety of a physician's career, from first practice position through retirement.
PracticeLink's core mission has always focused on connecting physicians with practice opportunities. Level 9 programs help address the physician shortage by incentivizing practice in underserved areas through loan repayment, visa waivers, and recruitment support while ensuring physicians maintain competency through CME requirements.
