Study from Massachusetts....more immigrants in healthcare in the US....BD 

Physicians, paramedics, and other healthcare workers in Massachusetts increasingly have something in common, according to a new study: Significant percentages of them were born in another country.

    Foreign-born workers are now represented at all echelons of the state's healthcare sector, from elite research laboratories to overflowing emergency rooms. Immigrants now make up more than a quarter of the workforce in several key jobs, including pharmacists, medical scientists, and surgeons, according to an executive summary for a new statewide study by professors from the University of Massachusetts at Boston, Tufts University, and the University of California, Berkeley.
