Questions on Impact of ACGME June 2019 Changes
| In June 2019, the new ACGME standards for Family Medicine eliminated the requirement for protected time for residency core faculty and reduced the time required for program directors, while adding an associate director. Have these changes in standards about faculty time had any practical impact on your residency in the last year? |
| If YES, please specify what—discussions with hospital leadership, change in faculty time allocation or budget, clinical supervision, faculty development, or other aspects. |
| The 2019 Family Medicine program requirements also reduced the standard for graduates passing a board exam from 90% to 80% and eliminated the requirement that 95% of residents take a board exam. Have these changes had any impact on your residency or your residency administrative procedures? |
| If YES, what changes? |
