A program's longevity often is an indication of its success. Such is the case with the 24-four-year run of the Idaho Rural/Underserved Opportunities Program (R/UOP), which represents a successful collaboration between the University of Washington School of Medicine in Seattle and the Idaho AFP. The medical school has administrative control of R/UOP, and each year since its inception, the Idaho AFP has allocated $5,000 toward a program that aims to alleviate physician shortages in a state known for its wilderness areas and rural lifestyle.
