> AMA (American Medical Association) has successfully lobbied congress to cap residencies at 100K a year, essentially restricting supply.

The AMA is opposed to the current cap, and has been active in both lobbying for increasing Medicare funding for residencies and in building up alternative sources of funding residencies: https://www.ama-assn.org/press-center/press-releases/ama-con...

This seems to be a persistent myth on HN. Do people just assume the AMA's position hasn't changed in 23 years?
