This bill amends the Public Health Service Act to require the Department of Health and Human Services to study and potentially establish a new designation system for general surgery shortage areas. The Secretary must conduct a comprehensive study examining whether current health professional shortage area designations accurately reflect access to general surgeons, consider alternative measurement methodologies, and analyze a specific approach based on surgery service areas and surgeon-to-population ratios. Within one year, the Secretary must report findings to Congress and may subsequently establish a formal designation methodology through rulemaking, with annual reviews and updates.
