This hybrid workshop gathers stakeholders to explore how changes in Graduate Medical Education (GME)—including policy reforms, improved data collection, and outcome reporting—can better meet the health needs of the nation (with an emphasis on primary care). The event responds to longstanding issues in the GME system: outdated funding models, insufficient outcome measurement, misaligned financial incentives, and limited workforce planning, contributing to physician shortages and maldistribution. Growing national interest—especially among primary care advocates— underscores the need for better data, accountability, and evidence-based approaches in federal and state GME policies. Workshop agenda and background paper available.
