their recruiting process is key. domestic physicians (low hanging fruit) will have to do for near term but beyond that, their continued success and staying competitive will hinge on their own human and financial ability to recruit from such places as india and the fillipines. H1-B visas are limited annually, so this coupled with needing adequate human and financial resources will definately pose a challenge. lets just hope Sahay can soon forge a successful collaberation with the right parties that will create the pipeline necessary to recruit those physicians "increasingly" needed from abroad.
