Even without the US it might be cheaper just to throw money at education to decrease scarcity of employees. You could put in special spots in schools that require X years of rural service time as GPs or Family Doctor only spots. Trade free education for restrictions on future employment.

It takes 2-3 more years of education to become a doctor in N America compared with Europe. For no good reason that I can see.
