Please join Health Affairs on Wednesday, September 10, for a Health Affairs forum to discuss, Graduate Medical Education That Meets the Nation's Health Needs, a recent report from the Institute of Medicine (IOM) Committee on the Governance and Financing of Graduate Medical Education (GME). Health Affairs Founding Editor John Iglehart will host the event.

For the past two years, the committee - co-chaired by former CMS and HCFA administrators Donald Berwick and Gail Wilensky - conducted an independent review of the governing and financing of the GME system, and the report is a roadmap for policymakers for repairing and improving its deficiencies.  The Health Affairs forum is one of the first opportunities interested parties will have to gather in a public setting to discuss and debate the committee's proposals.

Panels will cover:

  • GME Governance and Accountability
  • The GME Pipeline--Is it Meeting Society's Needs?
  • Medicare Policy and the Future of Graduate Medical Education

Among the confirmed speakers are: 

  • Christopher Dawe, Former Advisor to President Obama and US Senate Finance Committee
  • Atul Grover, Senior Vice President, Association of American Medical Colleges
  • Glenn Hackbarth, Chair, Medicare Payment Advisory Committee
  • Steven H. Lipstein, President and CEO, BJC HealthCare
  • Tom Nasca, CEO, Accreditation Council of Graduate Medical Education
  • Edward Salsberg, George Washington University
  • Stephen Shannon, President and CEO, American Association of Colleges of Osteopathic Medicine
  • David Sklar, Associate Dean of Graduate Medical Education, University of New Mexico, and Editor, Academic Medicine
  • George Thibault, President, Josiah Macy Jr. Foundation
  • Bruce Vladeck, Senior Advisor, Nexera, and former Administrator, Health Care Financing Administration
  • Debra F. Weinstein, Vice President for Graduate Medical Education, Partners Healthcare System
  • Gail Wilensky, Senior Fellow, Project HOPE, and Co-Chair of the IOM Committee on the Governance and Financing of Graduate Medical Educatio

Health Affairs is grateful to the Josiah Macy Jr. Foundation for its financial support of the event.
