education as one comprehensive teaching model to give medical students a more complete education. Formerly, medical practitioners would only gain surgical license and education through formal surgical apprenticeships that did not exist within the tradition medical school. Following Fourcroy's proposal and incorporating the readily available hospital corpses, the medical education would be moved into the hospital, so that students could learn both medical techniques and surgical techniques simultaneously. Fourcroy wished to "eradicate the ancient separation between two estates (surgery and medicine) that has caused so much trouble", stating that "Medicine and surgery are two branches of the same science". Purpose The report by Fourcroy, assisted in part by Francois Chaussier, was delivered to the National Convention in December 1794. Parts of the report were eventually integrated into the Law of 1794, which had several effects on the medical education system in France: Lead to the establishment of 3 new medical schools located in Paris, Montpellier, and Strasbourg. Integrated medical education into a hospital setting to give medical students a hands-on experience. Combined the teachings of surgery and medicine together within the hospital for medical students. Abolished the stratification of status between surgeons and physicians within the hospital setting and provided them with equal footing. Ensured that a steady supply of cadavers and dissection-ready bodies were available to medical students in the hospital. Mandated that "full-time, salaried" instructors were available in the hospitals to instruct students. Established a national scholarship program that would allow admission into the newly established schools. Scholarship awards were delivered based upon individual performance scores on nationally regulated entry exams. Notes Health law in France
