APGO Receives AMA Reimagining Residency Grant
Through its Reimagining Residency initiative, the American Medical Association (AMA) has awarded APGO a grant of $1.75 million over five years to fund the Transforming the UME to GME Transition: Right Resident, Right Program, Ready Day One project. APGO previously received a grant from the AMA to fund the initial feasibility study for the project. The goal of the project, led by Principal Investigator, Maya Hammoud, MD, MBA, is to:
- Optimize the alignment and compatibility between interested applicants and potential residency programs through the application and selection processes
- Provide incoming (matched) PGY-1 residents with professional development to ensure they have the medical knowledge, skills and support necessary to successfully begin residency
The project aims to simplify the residency application process by:
The project leadership team includes representation from both APGO and the Council on Resident Education in Obstetrics and Gynecology (CREOG).
- Developing standards to the ob-gyn application and interview processes by creating a single national calendar for residency application deadline, interview offerings, and rejections, and by establishing communication guidelines between applicants and programs.
- Developing additional application review metrics to encourage holistic review of residency applications.
- Developing an applicant compatibility index app that aids students with program selection by increasing transparency of metrics and characteristics programs use for residency selection.
- Creating an optional early result application program to decrease the number of applications needed for a successful match whenever possible.
