Can someone who knows more about this than me, comment on the following: Why are ‘resident clinics’ for patients with Medicaid or uninsured while ‘faculty clinics’ are for patients with private insurance? Racism? Classism? Should this be stopped?

Exactly. And then having to plead with already underpaid academic faculty to volunteer their time to supervise...it’s all so broken.

I worked in a student run clinic in medical school as well, an interprofessional one- we had OT, PT, Pharm, and nursing if I recall, on-site at a homeless shelter. I thought we learned and provided better care to vulnerable pts- they got more tine than the 7 mins most pts w/PCPs.
