> Every U.S. medical school requires the completion of a four-year degree from an accredited college or university.
However, if we look at the University of Chicago's Pritzker School of Medicine as just a single example [1] we see the following:
> "A baccalaureate degree is not required but is strongly preferred by the Admissions Committee."
Given that your reference, "Shemmassian Consulting", appears to be low-quality given that it makes categorically false statements, I won't bother to search for other schools. Suffice it to say that I am aware of quite a few, including my own, that do not require 4-year bachelor's degrees.
Finally, I understand supply-and-demand quite well, and I agree that increasing the supply of licensed US physicians may decrease healthcare costs (but it may not, as excess dollars in the system likely will be vacuumed up by administrators). However, this discussion is about decreasing entrance requirements to medical school, which is completely orthogonal.
