"On behalf of organizations dedicated to improving the health and well-being of children and adolescents, we write in support of Section 4 of your legislation, the EMPOWER for Health Act of 2019 (H.R. 2781), which would reauthorize the Pediatric Subspecialty Loan Repayment Program. Support for pediatric subspecialists is a needed step toward curbing today’s demonstrated critical shortage of pediatric medical subspecialists, pediatric surgical specialists, and child and adolescent psychiatrists to help provide children with timely access to the vital health services they need. We appreciate your commitment to ensuring a robust and well-trained health care workforce to care for America’s children."
