CHA has submitted a letter to the administration highlighting the impact of H-1B Visa changes on the pediatric workforce.
On Nov. 25, 2025, CHA submitted a letter to the administration urging an exemption for health care-related professionals — including pediatric clinicians and biomedical researchers — from the new $100,000 H-1B visa fee and related restrictions.
The letter highlights the significant impact these changes would have on the pediatric workforce and underscores the essential role international professionals play in sustaining access to specialized pediatric care and research.
Children’s hospitals demonstrate what health care can achieve when people are truly placed at the center.
From coverage and funding to workforce and community support, every decision by policymakers has downstream effects on children, families, and the systems that care for them.
There’s a crisis in pediatrics, and we can remedy a primary driver.
