New Allopathic Medical Schools and Family Physicians

[摘要] In 2018 the 8 national family medicine organizations set a goal of having 25% of graduating US medical students choose family medicine as their specialty by 2030 (25 2030 campaign).1 If current trends continue, this goal will not be met, as only 9.3% of graduating allopathic medical students selected family medicine residencies in 2018.2 The projected shortage of future primary care physicians has increased the urgency to ensure an adequate number of graduates from US medical schools enter family medicine each year. Developing expanded class sizes and opening new allopathic medical schools are strategies aimed at alleviating the impending primary care shortage.
