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.
