General

Whether you’re an avid fisherman, art enthusiast, thrill seeker or sports fanatic, Ohio has something special to offer you and your family. Known as the Buckeye State, Ohio is host to 8 professional sports organizations, the "Ohio State Fair", amazing amusement parks and art/science museums, excellent schools/colleges/universities and so much more.

Ohio offers both rural and urban career opportunities in modern, clean, state of the art facilities. Most locations are designated HPSA’s (Health Professional Shortage Areas) and represent Ohio's Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs, or community health centers) which allows our member organizations to provide access to the underserved population in most of Ohio's 88 counties.

Come to Ohio…we are rich with history and each season tells a story!

J1 Visas

 

The Ohio Department of Health (ODH) participates in the State 30 Program to increase access to health care services for Ohio’s underserved populations.  J-1 visa waivers allow foreign medical graduates to remain in the United States after completing residency/fellowship training in exchange for a three-year commitment to provide health care services in underserved areas. Primary care and mental health HPSAs, certain Medically Underserved Areas/Populations (MUA/Ps), and certain public and children’s hospitals located in MUAs are considered as underserved areas in the Ohio State 30 Program.  Of the 30 slots available each year, up to 10 "flex" slots may be used for placements outside of underserved areas, if an adequate level of service to residents of these areas is documented. Qualified international graduates granted waivers must provide direct patient care for 40 hours per week and provide health care to all patients regardless of their ability to pay.

 

Eligibility

The State 30 Program is open to all physician specialties, although the preference is for primary care physicians who will practice in HPSAs.  Physicians seeking J-1 waivers may not apply directly to ODH; applications are accepted only from sponsoring health care organizations.  Sponsoring health care organizations as well as J-1 physicians must accept Medicaid, Medicare and uninsured patients, and must provide services on a sliding fee scale based on 200 percent of the current federal poverty level.
