4. The Rent vs. Mortgage Analogy Why should Idaho create a medical education program? Doesn’t buying seats do the job? Providing medical education is a lot like putting a roof over your head. You can rent or you can buy . One provides shelter on a month-to-month basis ; the other adds the benefits of autonomy and equity . One is buying a service; one is making an investment. In times of economic downturn, growing medical education (professors, staff, clinicians and students) in state makes even more sense and will have a substantial economic payoff.
5. Idaho’s Matured Health Care Education WWAMI has worked up to this point. Why not expand it? We have matured since that arrangement began more than 30 years ago. During that time, Idaho has made investments in its own health profession programs and partnerships. We have what it takes to build our own program now. Students who complete their education here are more likely to set up practice here helping to improve one of the lowest physician-to-population ratios in the nation.

8. Ongoing Funding What would it cost to continue to fund the medical education program? If students were charged the same tuition as WWAMI currently charges, state support would total $6.6 million annually for 60 students per class, with a total enrollment of 240 students. Students could bear the full cost by paying a $46,952 annual tuition , or pay half the expense at $23,476 annual tuition. Of course, other proportions of student-to-state cost burden could be proposed.
9. ISU as a Lead Institution Why should ISU lead the state in a medical education program? Education in the health professions (which includes medical education) is ISU’s State Board of Education (SBOE) assigned area of both unique and primary emphasis in the state. (BSU has public policy and urban regional planning; UI has agriculture, architecture, law, and natural resources.) ISU offers 75% of the health professions degrees offered in Idaho . BSU offers 16%, and UI offers less than 9%.
10. Idaho’s Educational Planning How has the State Board of Education indicated Idaho State University as the right institution to lead the medical education program effort? The SBOE asked for medical-education-experienced applicants when hiring for ISU’s current presidency . Each of the four finalists had medical-education experience. The SBOE also included a medical degree (MD) in ISU’s eight-year plan.
