What's New!

Great news to share with you regarding the 'match' in family medicine this year - just announced!
More U.S. medical students chose family medicine as their specialty this year, resulting in a fill rate of 91.4 percent, the highest percentage for family medicine ever, according to the results of the 2010 Match.  Results show that 2,404 family medicine positions were filled out of 2,630 positions offered. An article about the Match results is posted at http://www.aafp.org/online/en/home/publications/news/news-now/resident-student-focus/20100318matchresults.html. This news will be highlighted with a link to the article in our new home page carousel tomorrow and will appear in the next week's edition of AAFP News Now.  In addition, you will note that the number of US Seniors matching into FM residencies also increased this year.

 Hopefully this is an indication that our collective efforts regarding student interest, payment reform, the PCMH, and system reform are paying off.
