Eyewitness NewsWASHINGTON (WABC) -- Lawmakers looking to cut the national deficit may chop teaching hospitals.
New York state's prestigious teaching hospitals could lose more than $1 billion a year.
The cuts would reduce the medicare subsidy for training doctors and for providing intensive medical services.
The subsidy has helped make New York the world capital of medical education, training about 16,000 doctors a year, more than any other state. (Copyright ©2011 WABC-TV/DT. All Rights Reserved.)Get more Politics & Elections »
