Foreign medical graduates already make up a staggering percentage of rural physicians. I'll see if I can find the data.
And as we continue with this PCP shortage, expect this to increase. There are only so many ACGME accredited med schools in the US, the demand could never be met. Plus, its much easier for foreign grads to match into primary care US residencies from a competitiveness standpoint then compared to the other specialized fields.
