Section 30.184 - Matching Eligible Communities with Eligible Resident Physicians(a) The department sends the ranked profiles of all registered resident physicians to all the registered communities, and the ranked profiles of all registered communities to the registered resident physicians. (b) Upon receipt of the profiles, eligible communities and eligible physicians may contact each other to determine if the community is suitable for the physician and the physician is suitable for the community. Once a match between a community and a physician is made, the community and the physician complete a joint application and submit it to the department by the deadline provided in the request for applications. (c) Resident physicians and communities making a match prior to initiating the registration process may both jointly register and apply simultaneously. The department will not distribute the ranked profiles of these matched resident physicians and communities to the pool of unmatched ranked registered resident physicians and communities. (d) The department reviews the joint applications and awards stipends to resident physicians matched with communities ranked as having the greatest need for a primary care physician.4 Tex. Admin.
