How come this was allowed this to happen? The floodgates might have just opened.

They still have to work for a Tennessee hospital with an ACGME residency program for 2 years before they can be granted an unrestricted license. HCA must be beside themselves with glee - all this cheap foreign labor!
Also, unrestricted license does not = board certified, which is becoming increasingly required (not just recommended) for many clinics.
What if the board just changes this requirement to include those who are licensed through this program. Everybody through it was a given that licensure requires residency. So why assume it’s a given that board certification will require residency in the futureThis.
For my specialty (radiology) this will have zero effect on the labor market because board eligible/certified is pretty much standard for most jobs and this doesn't affect that.

Yes but at least there used to be somewhat of a bottleneck in being able to get an internshipI was working on urgent care with my FL unrestricted FL medical license with nothing but an internship under my belt
