TOILETRIES, AISLE, FIRST FLOOR VA to Expand Training Of Specialists to Offset Shortage of Doctors The Veterans’ Administration will expand its medical specialist train ing program to get around a drastic shortage of 1,300 doctors this sum mer. The new plan, sanctioned by the American Medical Association, was outlined to reporters by Dr. Paul B. Magnuson, VA medical chief, at a press conference called yesterday to discuss the medical program. VA will lose the 1,300 doctors, mostly in July, Dr. Magnuson said, when that number of physicians, who were trained in Army specializ ed training and Navy V-12 courses, complete their tours of duty and return to civilian life. The agency now offers three-year courses in its hospitals for young resident doctors who want to be come specialists, the medical direc tor said. Before they can obtain specialist board ratings, however, they must complete two years of practice. Under the new plan, VA will offer courses for these latter two years, in addition to the three-year resi dent tours in its hospitals. Dr. Magnuson said VA will at tempt to recruit as many of its present 2,000 residents as possible to replace the 1,300 doctors who will leave. Others, he said, will be re cruited by the AMA from resident rolls in private hospitals. Salaries for the doctors will range from $4,100 to $7,000.
