The University of Arizona and University Physicians Healthcare are developing new residency programs with an emphasis on rural and medically underserved areas. These programs are unique in that they hope to feature training in telemedicine and offer rotations for residents interested in either generalist or specialty programs in a variety of rural and medically underserved settings. Two of the new programs, psychiatry and internal medicine, began in July 2008. Residencies in neurology, radiology, emergency medicine, family medicine and ophthalmology are expected to be in place by 2011.
