The letter\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.aha.org\/lettercomment\/2025-09-29-aha-urges-administration-exempt-health-care-personnel-h-1b-visa-program-changes\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">detailed the association&#8217;s concerns<\/a>\u00a0and said that\u00a0<span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/rural-hospitals-closing-reimbursements\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">rural<\/a><\/span>\u00a0and underserved communities could be hit hardest.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Given the staffing and financial challenges our hospitals are already facing, the increased petition fees outlined in the September 19 Proclamation would likely prevent many of them from continuing to recruit essential health care staff and could force a reduction in the services they are able to provide,&#8221; said the letter, addressed to Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem.<\/p>\n<p>The Department of Homeland Security did not comment on the letter when contacted by CBS News.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The Trump administration&#8217;s executive action notes that organizations can apply for exemptions. CBS News has reached out to the White House about whether the administration is considering an exemption for medical workers, and whether the number of any exemptions will be capped.  <\/p>\n<section
