Dear readers,
This week’s edition of Residency Program Insider features a brief about the Merritt Hawkins survey of final-year medical residents. While the brief mainly focuses on the recruitment figures, the survey also found that 39% of respondents thought they were unprepared to handle the “business side” of medicine and 56% said they received no formal instruction regarding medical business issues.
That’s a pretty significant percentage of residents reporting a gap in knowledge. How are your programs teaching residents about these issues? Let me know.
Thanks for reading!
