200.997 International Medical Graduates (IMGs):
MSSNY continues to discourage any form of discrimination toward International Medical Graduates (IMGs) and is expanding its efforts to identify and address the issues of major concern to IMGs. In order to encourage IMGs to join the mainstream of organized medicine, MSSNY is sending a loud and clear message that it vigorously opposes discrimination, will work diligently to establish equity in all professional standards including, but not limited to, licensure, reciprocity, academic and medical staff appointment, jobs, promotions, and hospital privileges, and that it will afford IMGs the same opportunities as non-IMGs to become involved in the policy making processes at all levels of organized medicine.
