Abstract

This article was migrated. The article was not marked as recommended. In the United States the pipeline of future healthcare providers is limited, and a shortage in the physician workforce is looming. New pipeline programs need to be established, or existing programs strengthened or expanded to address this program. We have piloted a community-based pre-profesisonal program for high school students, "Mini-Medical School", which has attracted over 500 students over the past 4 years. We believe that this model is low cost, reproducible, and can help achieve outcomes to increase the pool of future physicans and other health care providers by exposing them to positive role models in medicine in a creative, low stress setting.
