Host: Larry Kaskel, MD

Guest: Kathleen Franco, MD

Imagine being told on the first day of medical school that your graduate education would be at no charge. You may think this is impossible unless you are a student at The Cleveland Clinic Lerner College of Medicine of Case Western Reserve University. Dr Kathleen Franco, associate dean for Admissions, explains to host Dr. Larry Kaskel the decision of Clinic's medical school to offer a tuition free medical education, the funding mechanisms instituted to support this decision indefinitely, and the impact on the students and medical community.
