HealthAlliance of the Hudson Valley Insulated from Primary Care Physician Shortage

A recent report from the Healthcare Association of New York State estimates that a total of over 1,000 physicians are needed by 74% of hospitals located outside of New York City.


Thanks in part to the Institute for Family Health's successful and expanding residency program based at its Kingston Family Health Center, Kingston and HealthAlliance of the Hudson Valley have been insulated from this trend, especially in the area of Primary Care Physicians (PCPs). 30 of HealthAlliance's roughly 80 PCPs are graduates of the program.
