From the Association of Family Medicine Residency Directors: 25 X 2030: ANTICIPATING THE IMPACT

摘要

In 2025, 565 million visits to primary care physicians are projected in the United States. To meet this increasing demand, a study published in 2012 found that an additional 52,000 primary care physicians need to be added to the workforce. In 2018, 3,654 family medicine residency training positions were available in 653 ACGME-accredited programs. This represents approximately 12.6% of US allopathic and osteopathic medical school graduates matriculating into a family medicine residency program.
