Practice Areas: Family Practice, Pediatrics, Obstetrics & Gynecology, and Internal Medicine
Specialists: Yes; Specialists are considered, but primary care is prioritized and the need for a specialist must be well documented.
Application Review: Year-round Rolling Review; New Jersey does not officially have "Flex" spots but has its own program similar to Flex.
Notes: The Department's policy is completely discretionary, voluntary and may be modified or terminated at any time. The submission of a complete waiver package to the Department does not ensure that the Department will recommend a waiver. In all instances, the Department reserves the right to recommend or decline any request for a waiver. In order to facilitate review of the waiver requests by the New Jersey Department of Health and Senior Services, the request for waiver should come from a health care facility on behalf of a J-1 physician, and not directly from a J-1 physician or physician's representative. All of the required information and documentation must be submitted in a single package with documents presented in the order set forth. All documents must contain the case number assigned by the U.S. Department of State.
