As the baby boomers age and our health workforce retires. our shortages will grow. It has become our habit to recruit doctors and nurses from abroad and increasingly from the developing world to staff our hospitals. doctors offices. and other health centers. Those individuals immigrate here for the same reasons that people have always migrated here. They come for economic opportunities. greater freedom. and a better future for their children. As the son of an immigrant. I recognize their motivations and welcome the contributions that they make. But I also have to look at the countries that they leave behind.
